    Geez cricinfo is confusing…..how many labels can a player have ?

    Apparently you can be an opening batter, top order batter, middle order batter, wicket keeper batter, batter, all rounder, batting all rounder, bowling all rounder or bowler.

    For me this match is the one that either exposes us or gives us genuine belief 😱

    honestly, I think T20 is a lottery. Two great games in a row and yuo're champs. One piece of bad luck and you're done.

    There’s a bit of swing there, but Boult was a little too straight on that second ball.

    Amazing ball from Boult. I thought it bowled him but instead went for 4.

    I think that’s the intriguing thing about T20. You obviously need skill and good tactics. But the margin for error (mainly for the bowlers) is so small. You could be in a great position as a bowling team and then one over can really turn a match against you.

    It comes down to which group of bits and pieces players does it better on the day.

    Yeah - we really needed that inside edge from Hales to knock him over, but instead he gets four - England away to a bright start instead of being in early trouble.

    Is this commentary or cheerleading?

    They’ve been cheerleading both teams so far.

    Luck can turn just as quickly. Looks a high scoring pitch

    I’d expect that early nervous nelly post from sparky but not you 😉

    It’s a great pitch and whoever won the toss will have seen how it played in the previous game. Batting first is a big advantage.

    It’s T20 power play. Either comes off or fails big time.
    You just hope you aren’t on the wrong side both innings
