I haven't ever bought into the idea that we lost that game.
We didn't.
we drew the game, the tournament was awarded to England.
I'd buy a replica and put it up
We didn't draw the game, we won it on wickets, but they inexplicably changed the rules for that tournament and that tournament alone, making a complete farce of the tournament.

@no-quarter I'm prepared to generously allow that England tied the match, through two massive slices of luck and the efforts of a New Zealander.
And if any Englishman wants to quibble with that - we also won the Super over by half a run!
-
Well the English have every right to be confident about their team in the short forms of the game. Another team destroyed last night.
T20 seems like the only format you that have to back immediate form and PAK and themslves riding high. Still a few teams who on their day can beat both (including us) but a great start to the tournament by both.

Wow, it seems the BBC have hired some Herald writers. Get a load of this pile of wank. Even the Aussies applauded it? Englands team is better than have to resort to this sort of writing
FWIW I watched Butter's innings. It was really good. It wasn't even a great innings, let alone an all-time great innings. He didn't dominate right from the start, he played his way in, then hit some excellent shots.
Absolutely no idea why they are going on about it so much. It looks pathetic.

Those retro Champions Trophy uniforms seem about as lucky as those grey ABs jerseys

The risk with this team selection is that the tail starts at 7...
Not far off the tail now! Jeeze, hope our bowlers are up for it!!

Guppy doing a nice job of steadying the ship with help from Phillips
Phillips finding it very difficult to middle it.

Looks like he's trying too hard

Scotland have some excellent bowlers, and some proper shit ones.
No idea why Sharif didn't get a 3rd over earlier on.
Same as Pakistan, we seem to be struggling with timing a bit. Quite a few mishits.
2-2 after 2 and now goes for 17 in his 3rd. That’s T20 for ya
-
@majorrage it’s a fine line in this format. You want to keep your good bowlers with 1 or maybe 2 overs up your sleeve.
