[Dave Cooper please]

Daft shot from Salt, someone just needs to stay in and let Buttler do the scoring.

[Villan For Life]

We need to stay focused here and quieten the crowd. When things aren’t going their way they soon go silent and this transmits to the players.

[olaftab]

This phase is a brilliant contest.

[Villan For Life]

That’s some shot from Buttler, there was nothing wrong with the delivery and he executed the shot perfectly

[paul_e]

The key thing is that there's no scoreboard pressure so we don't need to push the run rate, if we see out the overs we win.

[Dave Cooper please]

That was a superb over and yet we got 11 runs off it!

[KNVillan]

Butler gone to a great delivery…

[Dave Cooper please]

Oh bollocks. We bat deep but we didn't need that.

[Villan For Life]

This is starting to worry me! It’s great having such depth in your batting line up but how many of them have had any time out in the middle?

[olaftab]

This is good cricket all round.

[Villan For Life]

Rauf has gone off

[Lastfootstamper]

Surely England can't lose a third World Cup game in one weekend. Surely...

Anyway, confident hat back on, be nice to see a Brummie knock the winning run.

I’d rather we didn’t lose anymore wickets!

[Lastfootstamper]

I suppose there is that option.

[KNVillan]

Ouch, that’ll hurt Brook for a bit…nasty blow to the elbow
