3-12 off his 4 overs from Curran. Wow.

[PaulWinch again]

Outstanding.

[KNVillan]

8 down…

It’s starting to rain

[Villan For Life]

Fantastic performance in the field, we are half way there. Their attack is good but we have the talent/nous to win this comfortably. Weather permitting

[Villa Lew]

At least 40 runs short.

[tomd2103]

Really good bowling performance that.  Given us a great chance to win now.

There will still be some play even if it does rain.  Restricting Pakistan to such a mediocre total will help as well if it's only 10 overs.

Brilliant bowling from England, a couple of poor overs but Curran and Rashid were exceptional. Fantastic fielding as well, Livingstone was like a magnet.

I reckon that's 20 below par.

[tomd2103]

Dil strikes.

What a brilliant over that was.

Not bad for someone only there "for wrong reasons".

Sorry, but that is a load of bollocks.  He's been one of the best T20 spinners in the world for a number of years now and a big part of the England white ball team.  Wisden is almost an institution in the game in this country, but it continues to push a political agenda through nonsensical stories like this.

Bugger, didn’t want that…Hales gone

[PaulWinch again]

Yikes that’s game on. Shaheen is so dangerous.

[Villan For Life]

Bugger, didn’t want that…Hales gone

A fantastic delivery though.

Why did the camera follow Hales right down the tunnel? They didn’t do that with any of the Pakistan wickets. Same old Aussies.

[Dave Cooper please]

If Buttler stays in until at least the 10th over we win this easily.

[KNVillan]

Shit, Salt has gone…32-2 off 3.3overs
