    Hmm. Most amusing 😤

    To be honest I never felt we’d posted a big enough total to defend against your boys and even with 57 off 24 I wasn’t counting my chickens. Once Neesham had taken 23 off Jordan’s over I felt the game was up.

    Bloody good batting from Neesham and Mitchell but kudos also for restricting a very dangerous England batting line up to 166.

    Question for Eoin Morgan though: why leave probably our most destructive batsman to come in at 5 when we’re already going so slow?

      Haven't read the thread but assume that most were like me, nothing was a given until that last shot. What a rollercoaster ride made more awesome by the good guys winning.

      Didn't even need to take the 'unfair' run on offer which was the icing on the cake.

      #stillbitter but that sweetened things slightly

        WHAT?!?!?

        Ha ha ha

        To be fair, Mitch senior’s bald nonce does look a bit like a bellend.

          I'm going to take some credit for staying up last night and watching the replay of the 2015 CWC NZ v ENG game.

          Man, I had almost forgotten what a complete and utter reaming that was. The Tim and Baz show. Crazy crazy stuff and I decided that it was a good omen.

              I didn't dare post for the last 20 minutes of that for fear of somehow jinxing that comeback 🙂

                  It's our way. Despite well over a decade of the best cricket I can remember. We still have the 90's - 2010ish etched into our memory.

                        And even then we were in 'trip over the last hurdle' territory.

                        When Satnav ended up on strike I had all sorts of bad thoughts.

                          Absolutely!!!

                          Even with 4 remaining, I was still worried. Those last two overs though! FREAK!!

                                That is a good effort - after England dispatched us early I thought they were in the groove despite the loss to RSA.

                                      He's a funny bastard. Wish more cricketers had a personality.

                                      He can play too. Better than any Aussie all rounder currently.

                                      Sorry, that was a bit of a @Virgil thing to say.

                                        @mn5 that's OK. You guys tend to say funny stuff in your little post-orgasmic cricket haze.
