Re: England Cricket Thread 2018
114-7 - Josh Buttler stands between the Aussie and preventing a white wash.
Makes that 8 - oh well 4-1 twice against the Aussies in recent ODI comps, cannot grumble.

Re: England Cricket Thread 2018
Not over just yet.
114-8 is now 195-9
11 needed from 25 balls.
Butler still there on 98.

Re: England Cricket Thread 2018
195-9 England almost there and Rashid has a brain fart. Why not just hit the one for Josh.

Re: England Cricket Thread 2018
ENGLAND WIN by one wicket.
Wonderful from Buttler, possibly his best innings for England, easy to do it on a road, but it wasn't today. WHITEWASH
Nice from Ball, he can't bowl but did what he needed to with the bat.

Re: England Cricket Thread 2018
Must admit, I was really looking toward to this series but didn’t see much of it due to the World Cup.
Absolutely brilliant stuff from England though.
Ok, possibly a depleted Aus side but it’s their fault they got caught cheating and you can only beat what’s in front of you.
Have some of that, Dingos.

Re: England Cricket Thread 2018
More Aussie bashing. 221-5 in the T20. Buttler 50 in 22, Hales, Roy and Root with some hitting as well.

Re: England Cricket Thread 2018
So f li cking between the football last night and the T20, we started brilliantly then slowed a little when Root came in, at that time would it have not been better to let Bairstow come in in front of Root?
I get why Root is in the T20 squad, if there is a bit of a collapse Root can come in and steady it up, when we are smashing it surely he should go further down the order. Root is a top class batsman, but for me he is not your "typical" T20 batsman. As said, get why he is in the 11, but did not get him coming in front of Bairstow, we should have broken our highest ever total last night.
Saying all that, we won, again.....
Now onto the Indians, can see them giving us more of a challenge, should be a cracking series.

Re: England Cricket Thread 2018
In amongst all the excitement last night, we got battered by India in the T20.
I think the management are glad it pretty much got forgotten by everyone!
