For me this match is the one that either exposes us or gives us genuine belief 😱
honestly, I think T20 is a lottery. Two great games in a row and yuo're champs. One piece of bad luck and you're done.
I think that’s the intriguing thing about T20. You obviously need skill and good tactics. But the margin for error (mainly for the bowlers) is so small. You could be in a great position as a bowling team and then one over can really turn a match against you.
Yeah - we really needed that inside edge from Hales to knock him over, but instead he gets four - England away to a bright start instead of being in early trouble.
Luck can turn just as quickly. Looks a high scoring pitch

Could be in trouble here.
I’d expect that early nervous nelly post from sparky but not you 😉
It’s a great pitch and whoever won the toss will have seen how it played in the previous game. Batting first is a big advantage.

Show the replay….

Kane can’t middle the catch just like the bat
-
Well that was pretty shit. Would have been a great catch
-
That was a good final delivery by Ferg
-
We don't need to be so nice ffs

Hales gets another inside edge but no wicket

Is this commentary or cheerleading?
They’ve been cheerleading both teams so far.
Seems to have been a directive for most of the tournament. From the commentary, every six, wicket, or catch taken in the first week and a half has been either The Best Shot Or The Best Delivery Ever In Cricket History...

Cheating Kiwis
I switched over to the cricket, just in time to watch that "catch".
Then logged onto the Fern, knowing that I was going to see exactly that post, from exactly that poster.As soon as I saw he'd shelled it, I wanted to go back and see if he'd ever claimed it.
I see now the commentators are bending over backwards to explain how he could/would have thought he'd recovered it before it bounced. So - conscience clear, back to being the true Paladins of the Spirit of Cricket.
