World T20 Final England vs West Indies
First topic message reminder :
I thought this now warranted a separate thread. We have a final that not many would have predicted either team would make, and a combination of finalists that probably no-one predicted!
Hoping for a good game but ultimately an England win

Well I didn't expect that. Root feels like a one man team with the bat at times now he's the main bowler too. A wicket or two more here and Windies won't know whether to stick or twist

A game of opinions but I would actually take Root off now and bank what we've got from him.

Simmons gone!! Something didn't look right about it on live viewing, will be interesting to see a replay.

Willey on the mark now. He's pumped.

3 wickets (minimum) needed in the opening 4 overs, I reckon, if England want to win this.
Or 3 wickets needed in 2 and a half overs, whatever grabs you!
Stunning start from the much-maligned segment of England's team.

100% agree. Maybe going back to him later in the innings, out of the PP, but I wouldn't give him another one now.
My umpiring is obviously dire, that is out.

18/3 after 4. RRR closer to 9 than 8.
The Windies need to ride out the bitter waves and establish a solid platform over the next 4/5 overs. England just need to chip away, and ensure their fielding is without error.
Pressure on the batting side, certainly.

Suspect the West Indies will close this out still.

Plunkett generating pace and hard to get away.

Odd umpiring. Gave him out , then - eventually - checked the TV - which inevitably looks dodgy. i reckon he caught it , myself. but...
Could end up a vital moment. Hope not...need to get Samuels.
Rashid time...

Bit of turn out there for Adil. His four overs could be crucial if that is the case.

England still ahead. Samuels the key man.
If England get him in the next couple of overs, the Windies will surely sink.

Still have some good hitters. But yes , Samuels - and Bravo - wickets would be handy now.

Re: World T20 Final England vs West Indies
Feels like this match is England's to lose right now. Pressure is building on the Windies.
They need to continue to contain if/when the inevitable onslaught occurs. Not sure we'll be seeing any dancing at the conclusion of this one.

Wickets becoming of desperate importance now for England.
Yes, the RRR is rising, but the Windies have some powerful hitters who can be unleashed on a solid platform, which this is becoming.

We're going to need some more wickets soon though to prevent a blitz in the last 5 or so overs ....

A bit like the six/wicket ball in the semi-final.

Agree Guildford. One big over can change the complexion of this chase. Think they will try and target Jordan.
Billings slip up just before was unfortunate.

Re: World T20 Final England vs West Indies
Rank long hop from Willey, Russell absolutely pastes it down Stokes' throat. A few yards either side and it was four (if not six). Still, Marlon is the man...

19 needed off the last over. Brilliant penultimate over in all the circumstances from Jordan. You watchin' VTR and friends?

Poor Ben Stokes.
I wish bumble wouldn't have said he had "18 runs to play with".
