    This is Steve Smith's moment to win back the hearts and minds of the Australian public and the cricketing world! 🙏

    Aus need to really dig in, any total above 230 will give the English plenty of nerves.

    Gotta be over 250, shirley

    No, but I rate England's batting form going into this match about 15-20 runs better than India's going into yesterday's

    They're a dangerous side, but Aus has the bowling to defend 230+. Don't forget they skittled the English for 221 in the round robin. Pressure will be right on England if they have to chase more than that.

    Predicted score of 255 seems wildly optimistic. Some tweaks to the system seem in order.

    Smith currently had five runs off 28 balls. A score of 180 would seem ... unlikely.

    As an aside, I've really enjoyed the battle between bat & ball this WC. None of this see who can outscore each other with ridiculous totals; batsmen that have shown application have scored plenty but there's also been plenty there for the bowlers.

    Actually makes it fun to watch both innings instead of just the batting. Henry & Boult carving the Indians up in the first 10 was some of the most exciting cricket I've watched.

    The Aussies will be trying to emulate us yesterday. Get a solid total and bank on their bowlers to do the business

    Aussies looking okay out there. The English supporting bowlers haven't done as well so far as ours did yesterday.

    Plenty of Indians wearing yellow, I wonder if they sold out after yesterday.

    He's Steve Smith. The Angry Lesbian. Completely unorthodox and still capable of 180.
