Five down, this is where Australia have done their best work at this world cup.

(But as I said earlier, previously it's involved Carey coming in.)
 
My guess is that 4th over is now Stokes done for the innings. Rashid will get at least one more over, probably more, so that's the 5th bowler more than covered. And with a new guy at the crease, and the tail to come, you want the big guns back on at his end.
 
Can't blame Morgan for not having a second slip. Some captains wouldn't have even had one.

But oh, if we had...
 
Quite happy to let Smith get singles in this over. Don't really want to risk wasting Archer's final over against Smith, rather than Starc.
 
The game hinges on England´s nerves with the bat - they will be tense, the crowd will be tense which will add to the drama. In a normal ODI I would back England at this stage but this is not a normal ODI. Vamos Ingleterra.
 
Looking forward to the Ashes series, is Broad really going to be playing? What has he done for Notts this season? It seems as if he is playing due to his reputation and the odd occasion where he does something wonderful. Time to bring in Porter.
 
At what point does Smith launch? How deep does he want to take this?

Taylor left it until about the 45th over in the first SF. And that was with more wickets in hand.
