CWC Final - Black Caps v England

[Donsteppa]

Hurrah! On the board from a wide!

[No Quarter]

Guppy having a go, hold on to your hats! Fair bit of swing there...

[Rapido]

Lol at Baz in comms. Loving the wild swing and miss first ball.

[Stockcar86]

All four group games at Lord’s won by the team batting first - comfortably, too.

[Damo]

Ball swinging and a touch off the pitch. Think we need to get through a few overs and then have a go.

Guppy does not agree with that assessment though.

[No Quarter]

Guppy gets one away into the wet outfield - good.

[mariner4life]

Aus panel gave us zero love. We are massive underdogs

[Rembrandt]

Worked most of today and now hopefully some reward for it!

[Donsteppa]

Negotiated the first over! Better than the MCG...

[Chris B.]

Ha - Guppy's already four times as good as against India - and way better than Finch!

[junior]

Batting first is our best bet to win, IMO. We're a better defending team and England have had their difficulties chasing in this tournament. However, it could just as easily go the way of 2015...

[Donsteppa]

Guppy a little too desperate to get off strike there...

[No Quarter]

They acted like that was obviously out and then.... No review. Hah. Didn't look out live.

[mariner4life]

Macca laughing at himself is commentary gold

[booboo]

Cheaty trying to bullshit Marais

[Damo]

They were so convinced and then didn't review. Good discipline from the captain.

[No Quarter]

Definite tactic to get down the pitch to upset their length. Good ploy.

[canefan]

I wish they'd reviewed

[hydro11]

I don't think the pitch is doing much.

[No Quarter]

Now we review....
