Glad Bairstow came back in to the squad. Scored 28 in four innings.

 

He’s shite him. Never seen someone play number 3 or 4 and get out bowled so often. Gets out early a lot, too.

 

Stick to the white ball stuff, Johnny.

 

The last game was embarrassing; nothing to do with the pitch this one.

Has Pant just reverse swept Archer for 6?

He's as exciting a batsman as there is in the world presently.

Must say Stokes has definitely had his money’s worth with that hair transplant when you consider the abomination that was put on Rooney’s head 

[sir roger]

Pretty comfortable , good performances right through the team.

[Trumo]

The remaining T20 fixtures will be played behind closed doors after a spike in cases in the state of Gujarat, where the recent matches have been played in Ahmedabad.

Incredible batting is this from Kholi

Other batsmen are available.

Incredible batting is this from Buttler

Sound, cheers. Can't be arsed with the 20 over stuff.

The 20-20's are lasting about as long as some 50 overs games znyway

The last two or three overs of an innings seem to take about 45 minutes. 

 

The game would actually be much better if you weren't allowed to change your field during an over.

Not a big fan of T20 but I’ve enjoyed this contest. Very even, decider Sunday will be worth a watch

Shite review from England that , if you don’t get the umpire giving the LBW and the wicket keeper is going down the leg side then it’s more than likely not going to be out 

[sir roger]

Rashid has to know that hasn’t straightened and squash that review. Missed by about 4 inches

 

[Stickman]

Looking pretty ominous for England is this even after just 5 overs 

[sir roger]

Great player but very easy to dislike is Kohli
