Fuller ends on 17 off 10. Can someone explain to me why he didn't come in at 4 because I just don't understand.
Barely any adjustment by DL. Two whole runs. DL really does favour the side batting second in t20 so, so much. Should be pretty straight forward for Surrey, even with massive boundaries. All it needs is one horror over from us, which we happily give each game.
Probably the best batsman on show (Amla) alongside probably be best hitter on show (Jacks), and between them they made it look easy. Yes, I know there were only two balls left, but if they'd needed to go harder I'm sure they would have. Really poor batting from us - both in terms of lack of boundaries and lack of 2s. And shafted by DL too. (Eg we didn't go hard on Topley's two PP overs, because we didn't know that we only had a 3.2 over PP play. Whereas Surrey did know that, when it came to Afridi's two PP overs.)
Should be a law against having England v Aus and Somerset v Birmingham on at the same time. England batting first anyway, need to score at least 500 looking at that Aussie lineup.
Unbelievable death bowling from Jordan and Curran! What a collapse by Australia, England win by 2 runs!
Great match....always is if you win I couldn’t see us winning that but wickets change games. Great bowling at the end and an Australian collapse...does life get better than that!
In other news, Birmingham get 107-4 off 12 overs and beat Somerset, who got 120-7 off 12 overs, by 4 runs. Try explaining that one please!
DLS method - Birmingham's score would have been adjusted in the innings break which takes into account run rate, wickets lost etc.
