T20 World Cup - Blackcaps vs England

[Donsteppa]

Worth throwing the ball to Phillips instead of back to Express Pies?

[Damo]

Our fielding has been sloppy today. Another misfield from captain there lead to a single.

[ACT Crusader]

And the thing about letting that single is that Buttler gets his 50 and retains the strike for the new over.

Boult doesn’t get to bowl at the new batter.

[KiwiMurph]

At this point we just have to hope our net run rate doesn't cop too much of a hammering.

Ireland might be a must win game

Yep, this looks like one of those nights where we haven't quite turned up.

[ACT Crusader]

@KiwiMurph we are going to win.

Kane could’ve got that with a bit more of a sprint

[KiwiMurph]

That sounded sweet off of the bat

England have been very lucky

[Canes4life]

Shit, nothing is going Kane’s way today. Hope he can step up with the bat.

[Donsteppa]

Paint by Numbers has now left it too late to try a sixth bowler. [Desperate for a Reverse Jinx]

[Damo]

Not our night tonight.

Still, we did whack 200 v Australia so it ain't over just yet.

[Xpat5]

The wicket is playing quite true naysayers!
Can we chase 182 ?

[KiwiMurph]

@Damo 200 setting a total and 200 chasing are very different propositions.

Definitely, but Finn Allen will need to fire from the start. I think we’ll be chasing 200+ though tbh.

[KiwiMurph]

Jeez these English are timing the shots brilliantly

[ACT Crusader]

Dear Kane

I bowl off break spin with barely any pace
