        @Duluth yeah, I mentioned in our semi thread that if there's a team who the crowd support would work least in favour of, it's be England. Reckon we'd be pretty similar also...

        LBW review!

          As I understand it, teams that lose their review in the 1st over of a semi final always lose don't they?

          Edit: Oh shit, it was the 2nd over.

                Shane Watson has really done wonders in his role as Australia's review coach since coming on board.

                  Finch did ask DDD if he should review.

                  Showed his desperation

                    It looked plumb unless he hit it. I saw him motioning to his bat but he obviously wasn't sure because it took him ten seconds to review.

                                        I think I'll watch England's innings live, that could reverse the jinx - I'd rather Kane & Co face Australia in the final...

                                            Unless all of the Indians return their tickets I don't think the crowd in the final will be pro-England.

                                            Besides, it didn't matter in Manchester when the crowd is against you. 🙂

                                                Swing is late and sharp

                                                Also how come I never realised how rapid Archer is? His action is effortless

                                                Reminds me of the effortless way that other top fast bowler Josh Hazlewood gets through the crease

                                                  Hopefully they all show up. One thing this tournament needs to work on is making sure people still show up when the semis get moved or their team isn't in it.

                                                      Why I agree with Nick. England much the better side - on paper. Just as India were .....
