The England Cricket Thread

A must win game won!

Well done England.

Let's hope we win the toss against New Zealand because we definitely look better batting first than chasing.

India just chucked the game in, Dhoni ambling about for singles.

Kelt · 30 Jun 2019 at 18:33

I'm amazed at India's finish to this game.

Playing singles when you needed boundaries.

Madness.

Jofra Archer is a serious talent, bowls a good line and length in general...though I can't help but feel he could be even faster with a smoother delivery stride.

Also, India have given up and Dhoni is more worried about his stats than trying to blast a quick 50.

If this was Pakistan the authorities would be having a close look at the bookies.....

Started hitting sixes and fours now the game has gone.

Do the Indians want the English through for some reason? :eek:

IPL viewing figures maybe

.

I think Dhoni was just trying to get a 50. Selfish.

Pandya must be ******, he put in a fair bit of effort striking the ball hard only to get singles.

Easy win for England, India never looked in serious contention. Have to wonder if Mumbai bookies were responsible for this result...

did india throw the match to hurt pakistans chances?

Pretty tame dead rubber between SL and WI.

Probably. It's the sort of thing India would do. Dohni's batting certainly didn't scream 'I'm desperate to win this for India.'

4 for 85, Lankans set for a solid victory here.

Sankari · 2 Jul 2019 at 01:10

Comfortable win for the Lankans. India will steamroll Bangladesh, and I think Pakistan will beat them too.

NZ has a very good chance of beating England, IMHO.

Oh yeah, they're a huge threat. Their seam attack is fantastic in my eyes.

Match is 1030 tomorrow UK time.

Bangladesh are in for a right tonking here.

You can't drop Rohit in the fifth over and expect :to win.

Sankari · 2 Jul 2019 at 11:50

India 0 for 111 at 18.2 overs. I'm not sure they've even realised Bangladesh is playing.

Sankari · 2 Jul 2019 at 12:46

1 for 190, India's batting practice continues.

Sankari · 2 Jul 2019 at 13:49

5 for 277, the Bangers strike back!

Sankari · 2 Jul 2019 at 14:21

India collapses to 9 for 314! Amazing scenes!

Kelt · 2 Jul 2019 at 14:25

Expected India to get more than that, Bangladesh have a chance!
