really poor from Finn, making the same mistakes as he did in nottingham.

This is going to have to be some chase, shocking fielding by Lumb there.

This is a batting deck, but it's pretty poor from England at the moment. Root is getting absolutely smashed.

Win them all, that's the way to go. This is some innings from Finch.

To be honest one day cricket doesn't float my boat - I'm very much a fan of the longer game.
Hence one reason why I won't bother going upstairs to watch until 9pm.

Good to decision to bowl first. Our bowling has been fucking horrendous.

You'd think that at some point there'd be no more snot to be pounded out of us. Amazing.

156 insane innings, well played Finch. Appalling bowling, but brilliant batting.

That over shows why Dernbach gets picked, when he gets it right he's a great T20 bowler, this game and his domestic season suggest he might have started to settle his line as well, which was always the problem.

In fairness I can't take this form seriously. It's entertaining, but in no way a reflection of overall quality.
