The England Cricket Thread

Fantastic performance, last overs bowling to Pandya were a bit wayward, but the batting was just sublime! Play like that Sunday and there will be no worries....But England.
 
Some info on the final here with the possibility of moving it to a 3pm slot on the Monday and allowing for an additional 2 hour delayed start. Expecting some major thunderstorms this weekend. You can feel it in the air already.

World Cup rules could be relaxed as Melbourne rain threatens to derail T20 showcase

Cricket bosses could relax the wet weather rules for the T20 World Cup final as heavy rain is forecast on Sunday and Monday in Melbourne.

So if they can't complete a 10 over per side match on either the Sunday or Monday they will call the match off and we'll have joint winners :o

Given that they know the forecast is bad for both days, surely it would make more sense to schedule the back-up day in Sydney where the forecast is clear? I know it's not perfect for those with tickets in Melbourne but I'd imagine many of those wouldn't be able to attend the final on Monday anyway and this is a WC final, you cannot not play it because of the weather.
