Bye bye fat lad

Never in any doubt……

Brilliant from Stokes . Great win

well that was good

I was just getting ready to say that it’s not really proper cricket anyway. Going to have to hold off for a bit longer.

Fantastic performance, really impressed they kept it together – amazing that such short games can have ebb and flow.

ballsy decision to bowl the last over of spin while Mathews was still whacking it around. Wasn’t convinced at the time, but my nerves couldn’t have taken it if that last over had been Mo or Rashid, even with 20-odd to get!!

Well the Ladies have just about managed to pull themselves back into it after a bad start, here’s hoping for a double celebration.

The evidence of the first innings seems to be scoring hard in the final overs. I think England need to get a move on.

You were right unfortunately.

So – women are out, and the men are staring down the barrel of a biggun’ – 180+ (currently 133-3 after 16)

Gettable, but needs someone to get in and make a good score.

[edit – now 134-4, Morgan with a fab catch]

I think NZ will be pretty disappointed with where they’re at now after the start they made. Couple of good overs could change that though….

Edit: another one down!

Looking a lot better than it did at 90 odd for 1 after 10

Utterly brilliant last 4 overs .

4 overs for 20 runs for 5 wickets. Brilliant.

Now for the hard part…….

Absolutely fantastic performance in the field, keep their heads and we should be able to do this.

Also does anyone else think NZ’s kit is atrocious ? It’s like a kit from the 90s that has faded in the wash

23-0 off two.

Decent start, don’t get carried away.

Make that 36-0 off three

36-0 off three, very good so far.

49 off 4.

60 off 5

Top biffery!

Only 7 off the over, you know how well they are playing when you think that is a bit disappointing.

Halfway there.

Are they setting us up for crushing disappointment…….?
Run a ball needed for 11 overs

Keep going please! Don’t try to dink it around, just carry on!!

Going far too well

They can’t mess this up from here can they? 😈

They can’t mess this up from here can they?

I’m sure they’ll give it a good try.

Bugger x 2

Oooooooo nnoooooooo

Calypso Collapso!

Keeping their heads well.

OK maybe they got bored.

That escalated quickly

Booom! 🙂

Absolutely bloody fantastic, what a brilliant performance.
