Good to see England 2-0 up with 3 to play with the next ODI on Tuesday.


Jos Buttler was bought for £385,000 by Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League (IPL) which was more than Ex England batsman Kevin Pietersen who went for £350,000 by Rising Pune Supergiants.


Shane LBW Watson went for the highest price.

How long is too long when it comes to asking for a DRS review? Australia are a bit miffed after Mitchell Marsh was out c&b after review, but as you will see on the video there was no real interest from the Kiwis until the replay was shown and the crowd got vocal about it.

How can they complain if the replay showed he was out? Does it matter that New Zealand might not have reviewed it otherwise?

Sounds like typical Australian moaning to me.

It's like what happened in the rugby world cup though, there was no interest in a review until the replay had been shown on the big screen. That then gives the screen operator control of parts of the game which is wrong imo.

The rules state that the review request must be made within 15 seconds, that certainly didn't happen there.

It doesn't change the fact that he was out, and the right decision was ultimately made and the good guys won. Why didn't Marsh walk when he saw himself that he was out? I thought the Aussies hated it when batsmen didn't walk.

Hasn't played a T20 international in over a year. Also, Asian pitches probably lend themselves more to an extra spinner like Rashid.

Shame there's no Bears in the England squad although we do have two Irish players.

One of the form teams over the last couple of seasons in T20, Warwickshire eh? Really like the look of Laurie Evans whenever I see him.
