        But cricinfo still hasn't taken this down

          All done, lovely yorker.

          The slow motion of Buttler's throw is incredible. It goes through Smith's legs as he's running, possibly brushing his perineum on the way through.

            224 to win @4.48

            Exactly the sort of chase we could mess up, of course.

              After the first 3 semi finalists got nothing, what will England's openers do? I'll pick 45-1 off 10.

              Mild panic later on in sight of victory, win by 3 wickets.

                  England will stroll this. OK my record both as tipster and badmind for the AEB is patchy, but I did reasssure my Kiwi mate Gav after 3 games they'd make the final

                  I only caught the last 5 overs on Cricinfo. Were England as impressive as that reads?

                    Heh. Overplaying the badmind there.

                    England just need to forget all the macho bluster and bore their way to the total, old school snoozefest in the middle overs.

                      Nope I am also convinced England will somehow stuff this up.

                        Yup.

                          Just by the law of averages I don't see a fourth semi-finalist struggling to make the low two hundreds, especially not the one with the deepest batting.

                          I dug out my old All Blacks jersey this morning and am even more sure now that I'll need to see if I can squeeze in to it for Sunday - though I have told my wife I'll buy my son an England t shirt to wear there too.

                            The crowd at the match are now sounding relaxed.

                                Nobody move. Nobody breath. For the next two hours. Nobody do anything.



                                At some point in the future England fans may get comfortable with the idea that their team are very good, no.1 in the world for a reason. And be willing to state the seemingly obvious about their games.

                                They are fair rattling along at the moment. The last over went for 15 runs.

                                  I'm still far from counting any chickens. I now think England have a chance. Logically a good one, but for now, in my head, it;s at about 35%.

                                    THREE SIXES IN A FUCKING ROW

                                      I'd put England as marginal favourites.

                                        Jason Roy was personally insulted by the idea that Steve Smith might be the bowler to remove him, wasn't he?

                                          Taking the short route to that winning line up there. Come on.

                                            You can take a man out of England, but you can't take English pessimism and fatalism out of a man. That is truly ingrained.

                                              Boo, only 8 runs from that over. Target down to 100. It's fine, as long as Mr Englishbattingcollapse isn't the next man in.
