    Got to feel desperately sorry for Rahul to have been injured so badly, so early on in the match that India had to bring a twelfth man on.  I hope we get good news from the hospital as soon as possible.

    Yeah, that he is unable to bat.

    It's always sad when a player has to go off "injured" and the best fielder that country has ever produced has to come on as twelfth man.  Feel very sorry for India.

    202=1 off 30
    They say double the score after 30, but I go for 375.

    If we can get around 360-370 i'll be happy, as the majority of their spin overs are done and Shami and Bumrah still have 11 overs left.

    Listening on my phone outdoors and  I think Vaughan is taking credit by saying Bairstow is playing with fire in his belly.

    Did he give a wanker sign to the Radio 5 box and MV ?
    Christ I can’t stand that eejit. 
    More patience than me fella, couldn’t listen to him at all.

    The reality is some people really have nothing better to do.

    Starting to struggle to score here. Need an injection of quality from someone.

    Buttler 

    *crosses fingers* 
  • Shami is rather good for a guy who wasn't even in the side at the start of the tournament

    211-3 from 35 overs after 202-1 from 30.


    9-2 from the last five overs.

    Root batting with a complete lack of intent hasn't helped. He's basically a slightly beefed-up Trott in situations like this.

    Stokes takes a while to get in and play. Partner that with Root and we will do well to hit 310+ here.
  • First boundary for 10 overs

    England throwing away a great start here. After 30 overs we were looking at a score of at least 350 & more likely 380+. Now 330 is looking about the best we can get with 300 being bare minimum.

    It's worth noting that even 300 is more than India have ever successfully chased in a World Cup match.

    Think people got carried away with the start. We were always going to struggle to maintain that pace as they had Shami and Bumrah to come back. Lo and behold, Shami returned to the attack and took 2 wickets.

    Still hopeful we can get to 340-350 but we may need Buttler in to get there.

    10 overs left to face and Bumrah has five of them. Shami has three.

    Stokes has done well this tournament. Has come in under pressure a few times and played sensibly.

    Your wrong, he is the glue and is doing his utmost that we don't implode again.

    I have a lot of faith in the England attack on this pitch .. 5 good quality pace bowlers, even if we could really do with a left armer .. BUT we don't have one so ..

    330 I think is still possible

    And I’m pretty sure that will be a winning score.
