Subbing Malan off worked out well

I think it was Livingstone wasn't it?

Covered End

Well bowled Sam Curran. 

Covered End

40 needed off 12.

Addick Addict

I mean I'm the last to complain if Malan isn't on the pitch but I think it really would be a confidence killer if you drop your number 3 to 8 and tell him not to field!

140-6 off 18

Game over but now still important that we don't go for many

I'm hoping England to win by less than 5 runs. If we bowl well we'll do it. 

Excellent bowling in last 10 mins.

Imagine if we had Topley too

I'll only lay off Ali if we don't go out of the comp on NRR.

Covered End

26 needed off 6.

Oooh 26 required off the final over. Wouldn't want the first ball to clear the ropes!

We win by 20 runs

Very good performance but still room for improvement especially with our fielding - both catching and ground fielding

Covered End

England win by 20 runs.

Brilliant performance.  Well done England.  Let's hope we beat them again in the final. 

Covered End

Super, smashing, lovely.

Tense for a while.  A good win

The work day can start now

It would be very England to lose to Sri Lanka now 

Addick Addict

So, assuming that NZ beat Ireland, we can now afford to defeat Sri Lanka by marginally less than Australia beat Afghanistan by

For the sake of the tournament, you really hope qualification isn't decided by the weather

Been a terrible tournament thus far

It's a bigger margin than you make it sound. 0.85 ish in England's favour 

Addick Addict

With Australia playing first, that is a big plus for us knowing what we have to do in our game. It really is in our hands.

Leuth

The worry is that Afghanistan will bat first and fold for 60

Manic_mania

Australia now in the tricky position of needing to not only smash Afghanistan by about 60 runs but also hope Sri Lanka win but not by too many... or just hope its a wash out
