He didn't pick the delivery, regardless of what Taylor is doing.
Yeah a bit of bounce that he didn’t quite read.

Kane’s hand forced given we are getting nothing from Taylor.
But he didn’t look settled
Kane is our premier batsmen, he should be able to up the ante regardless of what is happening at the other end. We really needed him to put the hammer down given he'd faced 100 odd balls. Gutted he didn't come off, but we've got a fair bit of hitting yet.

I get that NQ, but when your 3 and 4 - our two best bats are in - they should be working as a partnership.

Rossco doesn't have a clue out there

In a few overs, he will need to hit out or get out,

Yeah for sure. It looked like a conscious decision for Kane to start hitting. I do agree that Rosco needs to get a move on now or he's only going to heap pressure on the lower order.

Neesh gets a life. Yikes.
Come on, lads. Must we remind you again this is a SEMI FINAL???But, they have trips to Wimbledon to organise?
@Donsteppa My bad. Can't let work get in the way of play.

This pitch is a dog. The secret is India have bowled consistently and not bowled any pies or half-volleys to break the shackles.
I do not have faith that an attack with Henry and Santner can replicate the Indian's consistency with the ball - but I guess anything is possible.

Sounds like it's a new pitch so was hard to predict how it would play.
If Henry has one of his good games then he'll be a real handful.

Yet all the experts pre-game had looked at it and were predicting a belter.
