Sounds like Cook just used up our review in terrible fashion. Bad start.

Ashley Giles?

Another slow start, this isn't exactly the morale boosting win we need. The Ozzies must be loving this!

We have no one at the top who is able to put the bowlers under pressure in the powerplay.  We have good shot players up there but we could really do with a bully who punishes anything that isn't perfect.  Keiswetter had time in the T20 to become that player but his technique is limited, Prior had a go but has been forgotten.  There may be a case for getting KP to open but he's never looked comfortable when he's done it.  It seems strange that the T20 still hasn't led to the production of that type of player for us, all the other nations seem to be getting there.

We should kidnap Gayle.

Tedious stuff at Trent Bridge
Bell has got his 50
122 - 2 30 Overs
Bell 61 (79)
Root 23 (39)
So if double score in last 20 looking at around 240........not enough!!!

Did someone say Buttler wasn't that good the other day?

6444.4

Not a bad over.

This is the time in a match when he should be coming in.  Him coming on with 15 overs to go is the problem.

64 scored off the final 3 overs. That's pretty violent batting and distinctly un-England!

287.

Given the bowlers a real chance has Buttler. 47* from 16 balls.

Perfect displaying of 'finishing' from Morgan and Buttler.  287-6 is a remarkable score considering we were 180-4 after 42.

Good effort from Buttler and Morgan. I criticised him the other day, but that showed the value of Buttler fair play to him.
