That'll do.
Honestly not sure how much better England could have possibly bowled or fielded. Not many missed opportunities or big errors, plenty of excellent bowling.
All on the batsmen to do their part now.

Hope England wins, it would be good to wipe the smile off fellow Australian's faces with the sandpaper scandal and the team being super arrogant over the last 12 years :)
Or we could knock out these runs in 30-35 overs and easily win, lets be optimistic!
Arrogant Aussies? the Poms literally changed their eligibility rules for Archer. thats how much they want to win the trophy.
As an Aussie i hope the kiwis win the final. dont care who they beat
Same venue 20 years ago 213 was (not quite) enough for Australia to get through to the final, we just need one bowler to have Warnie type game and we have a chance.
Wanting to win the trophy (something I'm sure every country wants to do) and arrogance are completely different things.
Changed them to what the ICC standard is. Stupid to deny ourselves a British passport holder with an English father who wanted to play for us.
Fortunately the Aussies would never fast-track a citizenship case after lobbying from Cricket Australia led to changes in legislation
There is no way on earth this will be a cakewalk. This is England. And Australia.
If England win it will be 9 down with a run off the last ball....and that's a big IF.
If they lose an early wicket just push Woakes up to #3 and he'll take the team home with no fuss.
Doesn't look like it is doing much and South Africa are looking solid. Will need something special from here.
As an Aussie I just want Australia to lose :). Would have been happy with an India win (knowing how much other Australian's hate them) but I'll settle for a New Zealand/England tournament victory.
I finally found a stream.
I've read through the "rules" of cricket quite a few times, but I'm still so lost watching it..lol.

There's more going on that any sport I watch, lol. (and I watch darn near every sport in existence) I've yet to grasp the scoring....which seems important..haha.
I enjoy any competitive match though, so I'm going to keep this up on one monitor at work.
Reaching one base from another = 1 run.
Homerun = 6 runs
Ball crossing homerun boundary but along the ground = 4 runs.
Feel free to ask questions! lots of knowledgeable people here. And some Australians.
Thanks
Reading the "rules" didn't do me much good. Haha
I know there's protecting, also "hitting".....and the wickets getting hit get you "out", what else gets you "out"?
Sorry if my terms are wrong....American with little exposure, but I want to understand it all.
I need these terms to understand what is going on :-p
