Suddenly might struggle to get to 180, if they continue bowling like this.
 
Probably 15 short of where we should have got to after 15 overs, but that's because of those two great overs from Archer and Jordan.

Interesting running from Carberry, losing us a run.
 
What is concerning is the damage we did to their spinners. Ended up only bowling 6 overs between them as a result. Without a proper sixth bowler in our team, we may be forced to bowl 8 overs. (Although 4 of them are Afridi!)
 
Given that Wright is the key wicket, I'd be giving Abbott a third over (if we don't get Wright this next over). I know it's not the done thing, and we'd want Abbott for the back end, but Wright is the key.
 
Batting three, possibly four, places too high. So good to get him early, rather than be annoying.
 
Other than two, all their 4s and 6s have been from shocking balls from us.
 
Laurie Evans is excellent. But the rest are just sloggers who may or may not come off.
 
Credit to Reece though. His tight over I'm sure partly led to Wright taking that heave.
