Need to go at least 10 an over in the final 5 to get close to 300 which would be a par score
285 looks as good as it is getting, still have the fear with Englands batting though especially opening up with the walking wicket.

England gonna England.

I know Morgan has said "this is the way we play", but you probably aren't going to win the world cup just playing like that. Top notch opening spell from the Aussie bowlers tbf, but an unnecessary shot from Morgan to get out. Yes, they need to score, but that was the time to be digging in for at least a few overs.

It was stupid. Second match in a row that has required something other than the 'England way' and it's going to cost them again.

England 109-4 at halfway, need 177 from 150 balls. If these two can stay in for most of the remaining 25 overs then they have a decent chance.

 

Stokes limping a bit, looks like a hamstring problem.

 

Edit: It's a calf problem, getting a massage on it now.

Brilliant running catch by Khawaja on the boundary puts an end to Buttler's innings. Could be a repeat of the Sri Lanka game with Stokes running out of help. Woakes has cone in before Moeen as they know Lyon has his number.

A confidence-bereft Moeen gone now as well. I'm quite pleased the hubris of some of Sky's commentary team is about to be firmly slapped into place by the Aussies tbqh. It's a pity Warner is such a dick.

Some excellent shots of miserable fans as well[emoji1]
