think this is missing leg

edit : maybe not having seen the replay, she was well outside the line of the stumps

She got a fair bit forward.

Verdict out.

16 needed off the last over.

when i saw that one in the air i thought it was going for 6 and that would have made Australia favourites, luckily it didn't have the legs

that was a nervous finish after the mis-field

thought that final ball had a chance at first as well

More sloppiness from Sciver meant Aus needed a six off the final ball.

Luckily it didn't happen and England win.

Classic death bowling by Brunt and Gunn.

Good win for England, that

top of the pile atm

last 2 sets of games are interesting as most of the top 5 teams are playing against each other

You'd have to favour England for a semi spot at this point, as their last game is against West Indies. There's no sure thing in international sport, but it's a game that England really should win. If they do, given how most of the top 5 are playing each other in other games, they should go through, although I'm sure there's a permutation there somewhere in which they don't.

If they start holding their catches they might fancy beating NZ anyway never mind West Indies. In truth any of the top teams can win a one-off match , but the three weaker teams do look seriously off the pace at the moment..

At the moment India look vulnerable with Australia and NZ to play ; SA have a handy point from that washout against NZ.

Windies posted 285-4 from their 50 overs...havent got back on since though

Today's result a bit of a no brainer....even with a below par Windies

Should be another comfortable win for us.

3 of the 4 semi-finalists confirmed with the India-NZ game now being effectively a quarter final
