CWC Final - Black Caps v England

[Bovidae]

Timmy to be a late call-up and getting 7 wickets?

I'd be inclined to bowl first as you get two chances, so to speak.

I've changed my tune

Bowl first, jag an early one or two, and let the pressure and expectation do the rest

I've had a couple of beers. I've now cracked a ripper of a bottle of red. Could be a great night

I'm swinging wildly between the two, can't make my mind up. Setting them a decent total (270+) would have them under all sorts of pressure, but the first 10 would be stressful as hell.

Then again if Boult and Henry get a couple early there's every chance they'll crumble.

Still 1 hour 20 to go.... Faaarrkk.

How has the wicket played? If it played like a road then bat first. If there is a chance of something for the bowlers in the morning then bowl first

Weather is iffy today, it is drizzling early on. That may help us.

I've hit 3/3 top run scorer bets this cwc. Have back guppy. You should probably all jump on that.

I see you will be getting an early night. NO CRICKET FOR YOU.

Here’s a thought, it could help England too....

[No Quarter]

Play slightly delayed, scheduled to start at 9.45. toss at 9.15.

Fucking England and its shitty weather.

[Chris B.]

Win toss - bat!

Ignore the English weather and the greenness of the pitch.

Don't let England dictate the tempo.

[ACT Crusader]

We definitely should bowl if we win the toss.

This is an automated response. Magpie_In_Aus can't be reached right now as he is in a deep slumber and can only be awoken by a world cup victory. Please try again tomorrow.

Whatever happens tonight, it has been a glorious few days as a cricket tragic. Dare to dream!

I do tend to agree but Archer scares me.

Bowl. Have Henry and Boult rip out Ranga 1 and that fluffybunny Roy, then trap Ranga 2 at the non striker's end while his team collapses around him

[Donsteppa]

Won the toss and we're batting...!

[No Quarter]

Fuck we won the toss and we're batting.

@Chris-B if this goes wrong it's on you.

Don’t sit somewhere too comfy Kane

It’s officially squeaky bum time

[Chris B.]

@No-Quarter "Tails".

"We're going to have a bat"!

You bewdy - what could possibly go wrong!

Get fucking into it, Gup, Gup, Guppy!

[Bovidae]

It's deja vu all over again!

Go NZ!!!
