Steven, I think....

Roy gets his half-century....

37 partnership off six overs. Consolidating but still keeping the runs coming. That's so different from pre-Bayliss, whose ODI revolution seems to be getting forgotten in the Ashes fallout.

Just switched on - pleasantly surprised : - )

Moeen with an economy rate of under 4 - Bravo!

Roy gets his century!

Good effort from Wood too.

Emphatically recovered from his run of poor form last year.

Cruising this, and then a nice full toss!

Stunning effort this from England. Got to pinch yourself.

The thirty over mark is often the crisis point. But England really don't need to do anything different.

Well batted Jason Roy

Apparently his England career is finished according to some. Those who have made such claims have come up a cropper...

Jason scores 150+ once. I think that was highest by England batsman.

Another 150 plus today.

Such players are rare. Rohit Sharma is one who nobody can match in ODI. Jason Roy is showing he has appetite of Rohit Sharma. Such players will not be consistent, but when they are settled nobody else can score as many as them.

Jason is superb. Not even KP was capable of such long innings. Real big innings player. England should support him in bad patch imo. With him they can think of even chasing 400. Never watched England player score so many. Maybe he might once score 200 if team is batting first.

The double may be on.

Not enough runs left to chase imo.Just 52 and the other batsman will score some of that.
