Much to the wife's dismay, she got outvoted by the two cricket fans in the household (Seb is a friend of Akeal Hosein's brother so even more reason for him to watch the game). We did record Strictly and watch it afterwards but, as the "Fat Remote Controller", I think that it's fair to say that I might have skipped the odd bit here and there!Fanny Fanackapan said:

Oh me of little faith.....1 - 
            Away from England, Nathan Lyon has gone past 500 wickets. An incredible record for a non subcontinent finger spinner.3

            Phil Salt will keep wicket tonight, Buttler just playing as a batsman1
 - 
            Salt 50* from 23 balls0

A good decision and a massive pressure lifted. Far easier to direct operations and speak to the bowler from extra than as keeper.killerandflash said:Phil Salt will keep wicket tonight, Buttler just playing as a batsman2 - 
            Should get a very good score from here

            The only way that ball was missing was if the ball was going under the stumps. Talk about a waste of a review.2

            48 ball ton for Salt1
 - 
            Second ton on the bounce from Salt - this one off 48 balls. Bairstow might have to carry the drinks in the WC.1

            Finish on 267-3 which is the second highest score by any ICC full member in T20 cricket. Good toss to lose.4

With a score of 267 to defend, I'd be surprised if Buttler has too much stress captaining England in the field!Addick Addict said:

Have just looked it up - it's known as the Zhejiang University of Technology Cricket Field or the Hangzhou Cricket Ground, Pingfeng Campus Cricket Field. Dare not think what the capacity of their field.killerandflash said:Looking at the teams above us, Hangzhou cricket ground looks batsman friendly
