    I am really happy that Billings has been given a chance. Shame about Roy he hit it well but couldn't keep it down.

    68-2 in the 10 over power play. Our highest since 2011.
  • I'm loving this. Not saying We'll win the series as New Zealand are a great 1 day side but, with this new look side we have, I feel confident that we can regularly score 300+ runs in a 50 over game which in itself, is cause for optimism!

    I can't help thinking, if we can knock it around like this, what is McCallum going to do ?
  • I wish this team had gone to the world cup!

    It's great that we're finally batting like a 2015 ODI team and not a 1990s ODI team!

    Root's is the 3rd fastest ever 100 in ODI.

    Not having a dig at Ballance because he was simply the wrong man for the job but, given that Root bats at 3 for Yorkshire and Ballance at 5 in one day matches, it was true genius from Moores to have them in the opposite positions for the World Cup.

    Root out sadly, a great innings but he could have gone on to make a massive score

  • Stokes gone, so we welcome a certain Sam Billings to the crease. Anyone heard of him? :-)

    Everything crossed for him.
  • This looks out to me ... Hope I'm wrong
  • Yep, Billings is gone.

    really pleased for Rashid .. let's hope that this will give him confidence when he comes on to bowl .. and that the two newcomer failures, Billings and Roy can follow his example in the remainder of the series .. and Root and Butler (sounds like a brewing company) .. just sublime batting .. is there a stroke that Root can't play ?

    Buttler c Henry b McLenaghan 127 off 77 balls. Quite superb.

    379-7
  • I'm actually quite looking forward to the ODI series. I think we'll see a completely different England 1 day setup full of young, powerful exciting cricketers.

    I'm loving this. Not saying We'll win the series as New Zealand are a great 1 day side but, with this new look side we have, I feel confident that we can regularly score 300+ runs in a 50 over game which in itself, is cause for optimism!

    Wow, LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT!!!!!

    1st time over 400 - cracking effort.




    Particularly from Root and Buttler.
