    Wicket maiden in a T20. Don't see many of them.

    England in the driving seat you'd think but it looks nowhere near as good a track as the semi-final and I'd expect Pakistan's much quicker bowlers to get loads of bounce from it. England have given 10-12 away more than they should with the no-balls, wides and Buttler having the field too deep giving away 2s. Big 5 overs to come.

    I fancy us chasing anything below 160. Above that will depend a lot on how Buttler-Hales get going.

    I think we're well on top. Presume we'll do the same as against India and really attack the powerplay. We have been lucky with winning the toss too.

    Just 31 off the last 5 is a good job.

    47 dots balls is brilliant. Pakistan are far stronger bowling than batting and they need to be.

    Bit harsh. Only 9 extras in the innings. 1 no ball in the whole tournament. Massive ground. Only a couple of minor fielding errors.
    Pakistan have some excellent bowlers so it won't be a walk in the park.

    No, not really at all - no-balls are criminal in T20 and the wides were just loose deliveries. With the 2s this was also clear as they got 4 of them in two overs including 3 off consecutive balls from Rashid and then Buttler moved the fielders in 10 yards because he realised the error but it's hardly rocket science for a ground as big as MCG.

    I don’t watch much cricket on Tv due to no Sky etc. what is all this razzmatazz?!!

    and what is this bowling? That’s not a bowling action, that’s just a bloke throwing a ball as hard as he can. Have the rules changed?

    Making hard work of a poor total. Brook is due a score as he's had a very poor tournament so far.
