Given out caught behind and it clearly missed all.

Just got another stream running and watched it, crazy umpiring.

Wasn't out, umpire started to give it as a wide then gave Roy out. 

[sir roger]

Swished at one outside leg , missed it completely , Dharmasena starts to give a wide and gets intimidated into giving it out by the Aussies.

[Spy Bee]

Serves England right for trying it on with the Bairstow dismissal. You live by the sword and all that!

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Clearly missed everything, cheers lads.

Roy doesn't half look like Strauss through his helmet

That's pretty disgusting, mate.

[Pureblood]

Talk about a good toss to lose.

Yeah, mentioned it earlier mate. If we had won the toss we'd have definitely batted first and it could easily have been a case of roles reversed. 

[Guest Pistonbroke]

That Aussie bird, Mel Jones going on about how NZ's bowlers will worry Morgan, talk about being bitter. 

[Bjornebye]

Mad that neither Australia or India will be in the final. 

 

Can see England / NZ being a fucking cracker 

[Guest Pistonbroke]

 

Feeling über confident now. Aussies have more or less given up.

 

Something pleasing that Smith and Warner, two of the Aussies most senior players will be in the first Australian team to lose a WC semi-final.

New name on the trophy as well. If we weren't to win it then losing to NZ in a final isn't going to hurt as much as losing to one of the others.

I think they're about 100 runs short of being competitive.

I was about 50 runs light with this prediction.

 

Looking back I'm disappointed with this.

[lifetime fan]

Get in!!!!

[Guest Pistonbroke]

A thoroughly enjoying victory. Nice of the lads to knock the runs off quickly. I can now have a relaxing shit, shave and shower before my guests turn up rather than rushing things. 

 

A nice final to look forward to on Sunday. Should be a great day. Weather forecast for London on Sunday. Mainly overcast but sunny intervals after 16:00. No rain forecast. 

[Dan Vito Corleone]

Fantastic chase from England. Organised, composed and brutal when it needed to be. They did well to shrug off that ridiculous Roy decision because there was still plenty left to get at that point. New Zealand will provide a very tough but beatable opponent. Momentum was with both teams.

 

And at least it isn't Australia or India!

Their poxy score enabled us to play with no pressure once the openers were away.
