Given that Bairstow and Roy are walking wounded it's probably best that they let someone else take over 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ro Sham Bo Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 That's some hammering the Aussies have taken there. If the conditions/pitch suit batting on Sunday England will thump New Zealand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Tarmo Kink Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Good news for England as Jason Roy is free to play in the final. He has been fined 30% of his match fee and been given 2 demerit points however. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

England possibly now have the best opening pairing with both bat and ball in one day cricket. This is an exceptional group of players. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is an exceptional group of players.Hopefully will be a good pitch, depending on the overhead conditions, it will potentially decide the result at the toss. England have peaked at the right time but Boult, Ferguson & Williamson have shone throughout. If Martin Guptill, de Grandhomme & Mitch Santner fire this could be a classic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the 9 innings that New Zealand have batted in this world cup, Williamson has been at the crease by the end of the 4th over on 6 occasions. With this opening pairing for England, I expect that to be 7/10 come Sunday. If England win the toss then they'll cruise it. If NZ win it then they might make a game of it, but I'd still put it 75:25 in England's favour. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They grew up with swing and seam. They are the one team who with swinging over head conditions will be able to adjust. If Kanos the Destroyer and Taylor go big, all bets are off. That and their bowling attack can be lethal with a bit of movement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorlomin Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 I have enjoyed watching Morgan's team. For years England's one day team always had an air of people who were contractually obliged to do this in their time off from their real jobs (test cricket) and Englands results showed. Nasser and Vaughn helped change that culture but the rest of the world was moving faster. Under Morgan England seem to have finally caught up. Extremely well drilled, innovative and aggressive. Joffra has been a revelation, not since Jones and Harmison have England looked so fast. Normally I favour the underdog but heres to the wee man and his team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But a respectable defeat seems most likely This, coincidentally, was also my assessment of Hearts chances in the Scottish Cup Final. Hopefully I’m right again 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuctifano Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 (edited) Think of the world cup finals I can remember (go back as far as 1992) only 2011 hasn't been an absolute shoeing. Would rather the Kiwis win but if England win then they'll have deserved it for how they've changed their approach from the last WC.

Sir Tarmo Kink Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 Decent start for the Kiwis. I’m not going to mention any player in a positive or negative way today though, don’t want to influence anything... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aubrey Maturin Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 Guptill is definitely due a score, looks dangerous and has had a wee bit of luck so far. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
