StanSP Posted 14 July 2019 Author Posted 14 July 2019 Game over, no?! Woakes was silly there. Give Stokes the strike you melon.

Corky Posted 14 July 2019 Posted 14 July 2019 They've given themselves too much to do. Not reaching 240 and not being bowled out is a poor result.
Mark 'expert' Lawrenson Posted 14 July 2019 Posted 14 July 2019 This is looking like a dreadful chase, 240 should of been gettable even with the great NZ bowling attack
Leicester_Loyal Posted 14 July 2019 Posted 14 July 2019 I can't work out why we didn't go for quick singles earlier in the match, we literally wasted probably 10-15 runs there.

Really is easier said than done. Someone mentioned good field positions chosen by Williamson and it was the case early in the innings too.

Mark 'expert' Lawrenson Posted 14 July 2019 Posted 14 July 2019 Only 6 down as well should have gone for it earlier
StanSP Posted 14 July 2019 Author Posted 14 July 2019 If Stokes wins this for England it'll banish all the demons from that West Indies game few years ago. Like Knockaert against Watford!
