I have now moved slightly to recognise it's New Zealand's to lose. :(

A quiet and thoughtful crowd apparently at Lords.

It currently sounds like a morning session on a second day at Edgbaston...

Buttler picks out a beauty.

Sunday afternoons are meant to be relaxing! This has been so tense from ball one this morning.

Members were absolutely disgusted with that indecorous stroke from Buttler.

This is torture.

Just logged on to check the score.  How is it torture?  We're clearly not going to score 8 an over, especially with the players left.  It's like being 3-0 down in the last 80 minutes of a Cup Final having used all your subs.

If these two stay together it's England's world cup however at the moment  my money would be on NZ.

They seem to have ten players in the circle and a dozen on the boundary.
