World T20 Super 10 Group 1, SL, SA, WI, Eng, Afghan

[Alviro Patterson]

One small positive is Adil Rashid bowling comfortably above 50mph.

[Durhamfootman]

good work there from the spin twins. They at least managed to get SA to be more circumspect when they were bowling their last couple of overs each

shame that SA know they can afford to do that with the filth heading their way for the last half dozen overs

[Alviro Patterson]

Great fielding from Alex Hales, all this talk that England can win the tournament and can't even do the basics right

[Durhamfootman]

well the Root option didn't work, so I suppose it's back to the too short, too wide, in the slot, stuff

hang on to your hats!

[budgetmeansbudget]

Roy and Hales have to get us off to a flyer for a change.

Can't see it happening.

[Durhamfootman]

Keeper giving them runs now?

[dan08]

Afghanistan could give us a good game.

[Durhamfootman]

220-230, I reckon

[sussexpob]

Are the England selectors the only people in the world who think Stokes and Jordan are anywhere close to being good enough for this tournament?

[Aidan11]

They won't get 200


As long as Jordan doesn't bowl again.

[Alviro Patterson]

Maybe England have found themselves a death bowler in David Willey? He certainly has the playing style of Ryan Sidebottom

[Durhamfootman]

only 9 runs off the over

feels like a maiden

6 of Jordan's first 8 deliveries went to the boundary

still, that 9 run over brings his economy down to less than 16, so that's good

[Durhamfootman]

what do we reckon? one from Toppers and one from Jordan?

[Aidan11]

I hope our Batsmen are in the mood.

[Alviro Patterson]

Stokes to bowl the final over for me
