    McCarthy out. Tucker continues to be the lone Irish batsman to make an impact (71 off 48)

    That looks like a poor decision from Little to take a single off the last ball of the 18th over

    And so it proved with Little run out trying to take a single off the first ball of the next over

    A win is a win but that doesn't do their NRR that much good.

    Any win tomorrow and we go back above them.

    Australia's NRR is -0.30 and England's is +0.24. So, assuming that Australia beat Afghanistan, we need to ensure that we win our final two games by not much less than Australia defeat Afghanistan by. Or hope that NZ lose to Ireland.

    The main thing is that we beat NZ and Sri Lanka. The rest will look after itself.

    Realistically we have to win both games so we're effectively into our own knockout stage already.

    I've honestly no clue on how to work out NRR and what may/may not be required but if we win both games, Australia would surely need a big win v Afghanistan to go above us. We also play last so we'd know what was required anyway.

    But irrelevant as we have to win a very tough match tomorrow first.

    I'm fairly sure NRR is calculated like this:

    If a side got 100 off their 20overs then their run rate in the innings is 5.00. If the chasing side got 80 in reply, their run rate is 4.00 for the innings. So the chasing sides NRR would be -1.00. If the chasing side got the the hundred runs off 100 balls (i.e 6.00 an over RR) they would have a +1.00 NRR.

    If a side is bowled out chasing then the run rate for the innings would be as is they had batted for 20 overs. I.e bowled out for 60 after X overs, their run rate would be 3.00. So a -2 run rate if chasing 100 as the example.

    BBC Weather stating a day of heavy rain is due in Brisbane tomorrow but is expected to clear by the time the match is due to start at 18.00 Australian time (or whatever it's called )

    Need to decide whether or not to set my alarm for circa 7.45am ....or set " Record" & roll out of bed around 10am as usual....

    Cricket T20 WC played in spring in the rain. 
    Football WC played in 45C.

    So Sri Lanka have beaten Afghanistan which is bad news for us because it means that Sri Lanka can still qualify and so there will be something at stake for them when they play us whereas Afghanistan's match against Australia is a dead rubber for them.

    Like us they will be out if we lose today.

    Adil Rashid has injured himself on the infamous Gabba turf that ended Simon Jones career in sliding trying to stop the ball. No news as yet as to whether he will be fit to play. We will soon find out.

    England have won the toss and will bat
  • Addick Addict
    Addick Addict Posts: 39,757
    No change in the England side so Adil Rashid is fit. "We will always be flexible with the batting order" so Malan might well drop down the order if we get a decent start

    Good move by NZ to bring on Santner in the PP. Hales clueless against it.

    Much better from Hales against the pace of Southee on this surface

    Great catch from Williamson to get Buttler off Santner
  • Addick Addict
    Addick Addict Posts: 39,757
    Or not. Oh dear. The ball clearly bounced. Buttler is still in.

    Not sure why we did not get a run for the dropped catch. Why a dot ball?
