SouthStandUpperTier Posted 14 July 2019 Posted 14 July 2019 This is like watching a Benson & Hedges one-day final from the 80's. But I honestly don't mind.
Mark 'expert' Lawrenson Posted 14 July 2019 Posted 14 July 2019 This is better, scoreboard ticking over.
HybridFox Posted 14 July 2019 Posted 14 July 2019 Colin the "large man" would be the literal translation
StanSP Posted 14 July 2019 Author Posted 14 July 2019 Just now, Vacamion said: De Grandhomme. Economy rate of 2.5 in a final is class.
trabuch Posted 14 July 2019 Posted 14 July 2019 I've got 2 screens on the go now. Wimbledon might bring me more joy. But this game is still on. As Coney says on TMS the England batsmen are learning how to play on this pitch.
Spiritwalker Posted 14 July 2019 Posted 14 July 2019 I'm not sure which is the most stressful, the cricket or the Maguire thread.
Vacamion Posted 14 July 2019 Posted 14 July 2019 Either of these loses their wicket, it's over. It's the hope that kills you.

trabuch Posted 14 July 2019 Posted 14 July 2019 To be fair - this is really very exciting. But I would have preferred a one sided thrashing by England. Buttler is the game.
Bobby Hundreds Posted 14 July 2019 Posted 14 July 2019 Williamson has certainly out-captained Morgan. Their field positions have put the real squeeze on us.
Mike Oxlong Posted 14 July 2019 Posted 14 July 2019 We’ve really ridden our luck big time to just stay in it
StanSP Posted 14 July 2019 Author Posted 14 July 2019 T20 scenario now with what's left to get in so many balls.
UpTheLeagueFox Posted 14 July 2019 Posted 14 July 2019 If we lose this, how long before #Spursy starts trending on Twitter

Williamson has been the captain of the tournament by an absolute mile to be fair. Morgan has been very good, Williamson has been exceptional.
purpleronnie Posted 14 July 2019 Posted 14 July 2019 Like people stated earlier, those extras we gave away look so important.
StanSP Posted 14 July 2019 Author Posted 14 July 2019 Bit of stability in the innings now thanks to these 2. Stopping NZ momentum was key. Barely over a run a ball needed now. One wicket changes everything.
UpTheLeagueFox Posted 14 July 2019 Posted 14 July 2019 Stokes and Buttler need to keep nudging and nurdling, not too many high risk shots, keep wickets in hand, but without getting too far behind the rate. Bloody nerve wracking though!!!
Bobby Hundreds Posted 14 July 2019 Posted 14 July 2019 3 minutes ago, purpleronnie said: Like people stated earlier, those extras we gave away look so important. NZ already on 16.
Vacamion Posted 14 July 2019 Posted 14 July 2019 More of this. If we can get to 160 odd without losing another at 5 or 6 an over, my bottle will truly start twitching. Great contest, though.
