Big 6 by Brook and he breaks the large screen at the ground 😆

Who do we have to bring in for Butler? It’s Duckett isn’t it?

Duckett’s been out of form, so probably not much of an improvement.
Who is backup wicket keeper? Could move Buttler down the order & open with Jacks or Banton.

Because they’ve battered the last two teams and this is really irrelevant
Slightly bemused why you got so arsey about that comment 🤣 It’s common consensus that they struggled it the tournament. Anyway onto the semi final.

Brook has a history of dropping simple catches
Such skill to be an all time great. Unfortunately, unless he can play a more mature game, more regularly, he'll not improve from an ok intl player. I do wonder how much of how he plays is down to him/immaturity/his style? And how much is it down to McCullums "Bazball" style?


So far, so good for India though. Looking an easy route straight to the final via a small speed bump.

Carry on like this and we'll be chasing an ODI score!

Only comfort from this is that McCullum and Key will finally be removed after this

There was an interview with Finn Allen after his innings yesterday & he said NZ had done well and reached the final because of all the preparation and practice they did for all the grounds they could play at.

It seems harsh to penalise England for a slow over rate, as seems likely, given that we have spent most of the innings retrieving the ball from the top of the stand or the road behind it.

Idiots, they should have gone on holiday for a piss up and a bit of golf
