    Me and my mate have been moaning all tournament that Buttler should be at 4 and Bairstow opening. Think I might stop whinging now  :D

    Absolutely brilliant. Agree with Pelling, can't see SL chasing it down.

    I hope you guys are right, maybe it's just natural Charlton supporting pessimism. Just seems far easier for teams chasing to hit runs.

    SL have some talented batsmen one shouldn't rule out, but this is a stiff target

    Bat a 3 where he did in the IPL. Leave Buttler and Roy together. Then Bairstow, Morgan and Livingstone. No point having Malan at 7 - bring Billings in because he can finish and is also a much better fielder than Malan

    I meant the bowling!
  • And it becomes the perfect start!

    I knew that!! 
  • At least Sir Alistair Cook won't be able to chat about having more T20i hundreds than Buttler anymore.

    It'll be top four when Pakistan, NZ and Afghanistan all finish above them

    It's worth noting that Buttler's innings comprised 67 balls.  In other words, his partners, effectively enabled him to face around ten percent more deliveries than half the innings.  Without that 'farming', he may have ended up in the low nineties and England with a lower score.

    I've been telling all my mates who like a bet to put their money on Pakistan. 
    Now I still think they will make the final but if England get there as well I reckon it will come down to who wins the toss.

    Adil Rashid is sublime. Love his ability to shield his googly so well. Must be a nightmare to play against now he’s so accurate at the stumps. You’re either gonna edge it as it goes away from you or bowl you coming into you.

    First chance I’ve had to watch a game live.
    Now I understand why some of you were complaining about the woman on the loudspeaker.
    Jesus wept. 
    Her voice goes through me like nails down a blackboard. 
    stfu you annoying person.

    Incredible jinxing from me that!
  • Too close for comfort 
  • Going to need 2-3 more tight overs from Moeen and Jordan if we're going to win this
