    Yep, but got rugby and football on.........

    Not much interest in Cricket here........

    No surprise there - you in the pub, not the lack of interest in cricket!
  • AB ton. 12 to win from 44 balls.
  • Even England would struggle to mess up from that that position!
  • All over.
    The women won though.....
  • AB should have been out then but we couldn't appeal and umpire didn't give it. Grr. 210-5

    Didnt see it - what happened?

    ABDV has to be the luckiset batsman on the planet. Gets umpire call on lbw , top edges over keeper, skies between two fielders, not out when out - eff off to IPL.

    Who was the bowler for the turned down LBW? ;-)

    Still wasnt out !
  • England's batting still a real REAL weakness .. Morgan, Ali, Buttler, Roy .. if it weren't for Root and Hales we would have lost all 5 one dayers .. bring in Billings and Bairstow .. 2 wicketkeepers but choose one as a batsman .. Morgan ? .. totally out of form and no longer worth his place .. Root as 1 day skipper

    sorta agree with you Lincs except Buttler, who is a class player - came 3rd in ODI averages.
  • Beat SA A by 44 runs in T20 warm up. Morgan found a bit of form with 43 from 13, Hales continuing his with 78 from 50 odd balls. Rashid done well, fairly economical with 2 wickets. Topley a bit vulnerable but took 3, 2 for Willey too. Jordan economical but still struggles to take wickets.
    Woakes took a wicket but got battered, seems like right decision to leave him out of the squad.

    1st T20 today - 4pm start

    South Africa win the toss and will bowl

    England:
    Hales, Roy, Root, Morgan*, Stokes, Buttler+, Ali, Jordan, Rashid, Willey, Topley

    South Africa:
    Amla, de Villiers+, du Plessis*, Duminy, Rossouw, Miller, Wiese, Morris, Rabada, Abbott, Tahir
  • I have a friend out in CT for it - says potential for rain
  • Should be a goodun. Sure the top order is flexible, 7 real quality strikers of the ball on their day. Fancy SA but only by a small margin, AbdV if he stays about against our death bowling would be devastating.
  • What does Chris Jordan have over the selectors?
  • why the fuck aint Billings playing fuckin wankers.
  • Eng 36-0 off 3
  • 70-4 after 9. Dangerous game hitting a bowling attack of this quality around the park every ball, need's a steady scorer for the team to work from.

    Thats Roots job.

    Going to have to Morgan or Buttler's now.. Joe went hunting for boundaries from the first ball, easy enough to criticise but it is T20! Started almost too well that the players aren't adjusting to struggling now.

  • Really poor this from England
  • Awful batting performance this
  • It's ok, Jordan will save the day :smiley:
  • Few inches from a hatty for Tahir.

    We were at 45 after 5, now 81 after 13..

    Let's hope Rashid and Ali have similar success with the ball :neutral:
  • Bexley Rams flag in the crowd!
  • James, I saw that - Derby rather than us I suppose. We've got tickets for Sunday but I think the drive there is going to last longer than the England innings - and we're only 50k away
  • Pathetic batting display. What has happened to Morgan, Moeen. South Africa will ge that total within 14 overs.
  • Not sure it's worth going on Sunday
