Imagine the viewing figures not gonna be too high for this one back in India1

Vince replaces Roy0

With Roy ruled out I expect Bairstow to be promoted to open with possibly Billings coming in to replace Bairstow in the middle order.1

I'd much rather we played Vince than Billings0

? Why Billings captained the holders of out T20 blast !!!!2

I was thinking what my World XI might be based purely on the form demonstrated in this tournament. I came up with this:
Jos Buttler (WK) (England)
Mohammad Rizwan (Pakistan)
Babar Azam (Pakistan)
Kane Williamson (C) (New Zealand)
Aidan Markram (South Africa)
Shoaib Malik (Pakistan)
Hasaranga de Silva (Sri Lanka)
Anrich Nortje (South Africa)
Trent Boult (New Zealand)
Adam Zampa (Australia)
Jasprit Bumrah (India)
I'm sure other people will have vastly differing views especially as I can only find one place for an England player. Hopefully, those struggling for consistency will come good in the semis and final.0 -

Only one I'd swap in your team is Warner for Rizwan. Rashid unlucky perhaps.1 - Sponsored links:

Williamson doesn't get anywhere near my team of the tournament. Nor does Malik (runs against Scotland basically don't count)1

Completely agree, I don't think either are ideal to be honest but I'd open with Vince
1. Vince
2. Buttler
3. Malan
4. Bairstow
5. Livingstone
6. Ali
7. Morgan
8. Woakes
9. Jordan
10. Rashid
11. Wood0 -
Vince is dreadful. Very good county player and always looks good but has been found out time and again at international level. He was really quite poor when coming in for Roy in the 50 over wold cup. There was much panic the longer he was in the side and mass relief when Roy was available again for the latter stages. Billings no doubt would have played if he hadn't got injured in the buildup to the tournament - in fact wasnt he named in the squad only for Vince to replace him when he got injured. Billings was in this squad ahead of him as well.
Please not Vince. I dont understand how he gets anywhere near this squad. I know Root, Hales and Stokes are considered unavailable for this tournament but I would have an our of form Banton in the squad ahead of him too. Vince and Malan in the top 3 in T20 world cup would be an absolute disaster.
Bairstow to open and Livingstone to 4 mean we are getting the next best opener we have and getting much more from Livingstone which needs to happen. Billings is the perfect finisher to come in and strengthens the fielding.4 -

Banton is one for a few years imo. No need to throw him in, yet.0

Asalanka - has done well but anyone who gets 5, 6 & 8 against the likes of Oman, Netherlands and Papua New Guinea respectively needs to go away and work on his game
Nissanka - only does it every other game (5-61-0-24-7-72-1-51) so he is destined to fail in his next innings
Van der Dussen - I probably owe him one because I backed him to be the top South African bat in the WC at 6/1 but I can't be seen to be talking out of my pocket. It was a toss up between him and Williamson but I want the latter to captain the side and there isn't room for both
Asif Ali - he might have a strike rate of 247 but has only scored 57 runs in the tournament and has a lifetime average of 19 so the best I can offer him is the job of drinks carrier
I will now watch, with interest, how Williamson and Malik perform in the semis.0 -
I’m missing the start.
Wednesdays is my sewing group.
What have I become? 😫😫😫😫😫6 -
NZ the best overall white and red ball side in the world. Their bowling attack is up with the best albeit without a spinning superstar but Santner and Sodhe combined do more than an adequate job. It will be a question as to whether the likes of Boult and Southee take early scalps and specifically the wicket of Buttler that will probably define which way the result goes.1

All the talk seems to be Billings vs Willey depending on the pitch. Porbably fair enough given the others are all in possession but I would have Billings in anyway and the question should be Malan vs Willey. The other consideration of course is that its our death bowling that has struggled without Mills/Archer so perhaps Topley for Wood?
Perhaps I'm over thinking this.2 -
Not feeling too confident about today0
