    We could struggle just as much 240/250 could be competitive. As they say, you don't know what a good score is until both teams have batted.
    Still what a start!

    Agree BT. We've got to get him or at least concentrate on the last ball to stop
    him getting the strike in any new over. He's the one that can take it away from us.

    Can't see them getting beyond 200 at the moment.

    was hoping to watch some at lunchtime but the Mrs wants the Tennis and as Wimbedon is about the only time she insists on watching sport I am a bit stuck - might pull rank towards the end of Englands innings though

    Haha. If we lose it from this position we don't deserve to win the whole thing as far as I'm concerned. They're going to be under a huge amount of pressure. Fingers crossed they do it.

    so 223 then bit more than the 200 you couldnt see coming !

    Disappointing we let them past 200 from where they were but I think I would have taken 224 to win before the Aussies started batting

    It wasn't looking good for them at that point. Fair play to the tail end for digging in. I think we'd have taken anything under 250 in heartbeat, so will be a real test of nerve for them now. We know the quality is there, can they cope psychologically?
