We have the X factor (buttler, mainly) to beat NZ, but they are solid all the way through. My prediction will hang exclusively on who wins the toss0

Just tell them you can't make it, i'm sure you can patch things up next week...KBslittlesis said:I’m missing the start.

The 'safe' option is Billings to come in to bat middle order and and be excellent in the outfield.
(Hopefully no repeat of the dropped catch in the 2016 final when on as sub)
The bold option, and I believe the correct one, is David Willey.
Adds bowling variety to the team and is a hugely dangerous hitter anywhere in the order.1 -
As a Sussex fan i'm still scarred from watching David Willey whack us all around Hove in the Blast 1/4 final in 2015. Gives us an important extra option with the ball toomid_life_crisis said:The 'safe' option is Billings to come in to bat middle order and and be excellent in the outfield.

never underestimate this New Zealand side. Especially after 2019 World Cup. The kiwis will want paybackMcBobbin said:We have the X factor (buttler, mainly) to beat NZ, but they are solid all the way through. My prediction will hang exclusively on who wins the toss2 -

Need 170 here imo1

Hmm, I fancied us batting 2nd, but think it will be very close now we're batting 1st.0

Bairstow falls and wastes a review1

He would even review if he was clean bowled.MrOneLung said:Bairstow falls and wastes a review2 -

North of 190 required for any sense of comfort
Too much hangs on the toss with matches starting at this time
ICC utterly supplicant to BCCI and Indian TV deals
Would starting 2 or 3 hours earlier so severely impact their TV audience they'd pay so much less? Obviously not.
The integrity of the contest is undermined by the change in conditions as dusk falls.
The kicker being the audiences for the knockout phase have been scuppered by India's elimination, which nobody at ICC was permitted to consider.
That said England selectors went all-in on the fitness of a player who's always been injury prone, at the same time leaving 2nd string players without match practice even against weaker opposition so they now come in green to the knockout matches. Bog standard duncery. It wasn't broke so with one eye closed didn't need fixing but they flogged it until it broke and have to run with plan B that hasn't been stress tested.0 -
If this relatively sedate start continues and we lose one of these two soon then we need to send in either Moeen or Livingstone as the alternative will create even more pressure on those coming in later0
-
Moeen isn't even padded up so he clearly isn't in line to come in at 3 whatever the circumstances0
-
Bairstow eating too many balls so far.0

can't fault southee's bowling though1

Wow. A bit of tennis ball bounce there!0
-
A few gifts from Boult0
-
Followed by one that didn't get up!0

As an opening duo there’s none better than Boult/Southee IMO. As I type this Boult goes for 16. Better over for us.McBobbin said:can't fault southee's bowling though1 -
Inconsistent bounce making me take 10-20 runs off of the par score here.0
-
155/160 par I reckon0
-
If the Umpires can't trust Williamson to call a catch, who can they trust?1
-
It was out.0
-
Right to send Malan in now as Buttler is still there but Livingstone has to be next in.1
