I didn't bother watching either Colner, the main prize has already been lost
3am starts are too late/ early for me. It’s nice to get a win though.
Fantastic win and in having to get a record score as well.okay we didn't win the main event but I Phookin love it when we get one over the Arrogants ones ..well done to Roy and Root
Anyone watching the closing stages of day 2. After looking on top for much of the second innings the move to evening lights has introduced some reverse swing and some quick wickets.
Aussie got 270-9 Finch 106
We are now 243-6 with Joe Root 41 and Woakes 13 batting Bairstow 60 and Hales 57 Top scorers so far. 10 overs left to get 27
Another great run chasing victory for the lads,the Arrogants lose two on the trot.. Back to back centuries for the Aussie batter and on the losing side twice..Do I feel sorry for I'm ? Do I phook.!!!
Would be nice to whitewash them back.
Joe Root came in at 119 -2 and scored 46 of the next 155 runs. One four no sixes. He got 4 of the last 31 runs. An innings of Boycott Standard, but he did his job and got two wickets. And we won with 6 overs to spare.
Luvverly jubbly Rodney!
Back on and again look8ng close. We managed 303-6 with Butler hitting 100 and us getting 100 in the last 10 overs.
They were 178-3 after 32 sadly Plunkett had to stop bowling so we need another bowler from somewhere.
Now 181-4 after 35 as Smith out controversially caught by Butler, but convinced the ball hit the ground first.
A win by 16 runs so 3-0 up and a series win.
Down to Buttlers game changing innings and some clever bowling tactics despite losing Plunkett
