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.

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.

Today's pitch or the one from the 1999 semi-final? I feel like they've spent more time on that one.

We are meekly bowing out.
Actually we've been meekly bowing out for more than a week
@mariner4life all downhill since our “big” win against Sri Lanka

Someone remind me why Latham is in the side?

We're specialising in slow awkward runs?

Grr starting to rain which means wet field which means wet ball when we bowl. Not cool.

How was that not a wide. Well above his head.
