Hales and Roy lost that for England.  Using 33 percent of the overs with strike rate of 100 and having the power play is completely unacceptable.

Im personally willing to blame Topley for everything. Utter garbage.

No idea why Morgan gives Rashid only 2 overs.  He's the wicket taker.  He's always expensive.

I'd prefer us to chase whenever possible. Inexperience is a downside with our side, and batting first we don't seem to know what a winnable score is, and then how to defend whatever we get.  We aim for 200 when sometimes 170 would be enough etc. Given our current attacking ethos with the bat, I'd like to see us try and restrict teams and then commit to chasing whatever we need in the aggressive manner we've gone with since the WC debacle last year.

We're learning on the job so to speak, only 1 player with IPL experience, it's going to be tough. Obvs bowling Rashid for 2 overs makes it tougher, should have been bowling all 4 and exclusively googlies to Gayle. Uphill struggle from here

No apparent game management from the bowlers at all. Far too many bad balls bowled including a ridic amount of wides.

For those that can, West Indies to win t20 @ 11/1, 1/2 ew is a fantastic bet with 364

it looks like an oddschecker error or it went quickly.  6/1 now

edit, sure it is oddschecker, all the other prices look dated

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

Pakistan were wrong on oddschecker aswell, seems just an oddschecker error or quickly snapped up on 365. Thanks for the spot though!

So if England lose tomorrow we're all but out of the comp. Thoughts on the format? Seems a bit silly that this can happen. Why don't we just put all 10 teams in 1 group and everyone plays everyone instead

Format is fine. Lose two games in a rugby or football World Cup and you're out too.

playing 9 games in group format against everyone would lead to dead rubbers and a boat load of corruption like ... for once I think the format is pretty good

I don't understand why McCullum retired before this event? NZ looking awesome in his absence still. Santner seems like a future star
