Awesome finishing by Windies! Brilliant innings by Samuels under a lot of pressure. Champions!
4 sixes in a row, that's just amazing! A well deserved win for the windies, feel sorry for Stokes!! Wouldn't want to be him right now.
They probably deserve it over the course of the tournament tho. And they knew in that last over they just need to go for it.Nothing to lose at that point
Fair play to the Windies for recovering from 11-3. Crap last over but great hitting by Brathwaite.
I haven't watched cricket for twenty-five years. Has anything happened yet?
Entertaining ODI today, looked down and out and somehow managed to tie the game with a six off the final ball
Shame they couldn't have got 1 more , and that was a no ball near the end , simple as that ....
Ok so that one wasn't quite as close! data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
Great batting performance. There's match winners throughout this England side now.
This thread is VERY quiet!
Great series in Bangladesh, highlights a number of things:
England still have major issues with their batting order: huge gaps at both opener and in the middle orderWithout Broad AND Anderson England often 'lose control' in the fieldThe spin options aren't 'frightening' for the opposition
For me, Ballance was dropped before, went back to county cricket but didn't improve either his technique or score heavily.I don't see why he justifies a place in the side?
I don't understand taking Hameed on tour but not playing him?
Batty is hardly one for the future?
I'd find a place for Haseeb Hameed and Sam Billings (great player of spin) in the side.If all fit my 11 for India would be:
Cook
Hameed
Root
Duckett
Billings
Stokes
Bairstow
Ali
Woakes
Rashid
Broad
