CWC Final - Black Caps v England

[Damo]

What are the English change bowlers like? I haven't watched much of the English this CWC?

[Mokey]

Unfortunately these two have gone right into their shells and are playing like it's a minefield. Grandmaster Ship-Steadier yet to get his sea legs.

Wood and Stokes are far less scary. The spinner did well at edgbaston but it remains to see if this pitch is spin friendly

They are good but not dangerous, except for Rashid. They do have six genuine options.

[booboo]

Kane off the mark ...

[Steven Harris]

Busy showing a graphic of the commentators they just about miss the first ball of Archers 5th over..have the production team that did the Fiji v Maori rugby game in Suva yesterday flown over to lords..?

[canefan]

This might be archer's last over for this spell

[No Quarter]

1 down after 10. I'll take that all things considered.

[kiwiinmelb]

So what’s a pass mark score on this ground ?

250 ?

[Stag]

They simply can’t dig a hole again like they did in the semi. This time they won’t get out of it.

280 at least has to be par.

I reckon we need at least that, 250 to win the cup won't be easy. Plenty of room to choke up

Nichols batting like a #9

Southee could’ve hit that wide one for 4

England's strength is their batting and they are a good chasing team.

Foxtel guys, specificaly M Waugh, said 280 less 10% for the final so 250.

I reckon that may be optimistic.
