Big game for England with the No Result with Scotland.

 

[Fire]

If Australia win this one, then its going to be awesome when we lose to Scotland

We can afford a loss to Scotland if we win this one

 

[ep2018]

Neither team set the world on fire in their first game, mind you England didn't get a chance to bat.

We're as good as through with a win here, a loss not the end of the world either (just need to win the games we should).

it would be a tactical loss, is what I meant.

(I was attempting to make a joke as such a result would see Engerland finish third. Never mind.)

Are wins carried through to the second stage of the tournament a la 1999 ODI WC?

 

[FreoGirl]

Mitch Marsh for highest score

Nope. The table gets wiped at the start of the Super 8

 

[akkaps]

England chose to bowl

Cummins in for Ellis

England have won the toss and have opted to field

 

[AvantGardener]

Well this has actually been worth getting up for (so far)

 

[Moonwatcher]

Would have taken 1/70 but damn

 

[Moonwatcher]

 

[Moonwatcher]

5 ducks in Maxwell's last 10 T20 innings.

 

[Moonwatcher]

No duck for our Maxy

 

[Moonwatcher]

This must be the least posted in thread for an Australia v England cricket game in Bigfooty history.

Least posted in thread for this WC ironically

 

[Moonwatcher]

Stoinis makes the batting line up look a bit thin (was motm last game)

 

[Moonwatcher]

18 off the over. Needed a big one.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Contributions from everyone but no one going on with it.

 

[Moonwatcher]

England would be confident chasing 200

 

[Moonwatcher]

Hopefully Stoinis faces 12 of the last 19 balls.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Already a good cameo from Wade

 

[AvantGardener]

Lol @ Bairstow in the field

 

[Moonwatcher]

Wade being a flog as usual and the umpire is having none of it.

Would have been interesting had the ball hit the stumps.
