Could someone please tell me why Moeen Ali is in the team.

Watching this pair of sandpaper cheating pricks batting together don't sit well with me.

That was fantastic. Loving the cricket this summer

Miserableoldgit

Wow.
Thought we were out of this, Aussies 124/1 in the 14th.
England win by 2 runs.

Great ending, been more in to the cricket this year for obvious reasons, really enjoying it.

That's the one thing about T20, wickets are crucial. 2 established batsmen and the target is a piece of  cake. 2 new batsmen and suddenly it becomes tough

I wasn't impressed with Stoinis when he played for Kent

39 needed off 34 balls and 9 wickets left 
amazing or bookies orders 🤷‍♂️

Covered End

Never in doubt

That really was a collapse of English proportions but great to watch.

Love putting one over the cheats. .

Nice last over from Curran, and a fantastic penultimate one from Jordan

Slightly confused over the wicket keeping situation

Buttler is the Test keeper I understand, but I thought that Bairstow was the white ball keeper, yet Buttler kept yesterday

I was thinking the same. Not sure on current form Bairstow should be selected just as a batsman

They should both be in the team.  Bairstow is a better ground fielder.

It's a major change that keepers can also be great ground fielders. Billings seems to field for England almost exclusively on the boundary

But also a better keeper.

Agreed, I can see him slipping out of the T20 team.

I'd love for Zak to get into the T20 or ODI but would miss seeing him at Kent, especially in the T20Blast. 

Where's Stevens btw?

They have just said that about Bairstow and Billings on the commentary of the Kent v Essex game

He's not featured in our T20 side for a couple of season
