    Pretty good total in the end, great knock for Morgan - just what he needed.

    Ended up being a very good innings from England

    Didn't expect them to get this many

    21 boundaries which usually wins games

    Still can't see that being enough

    At least Dernbach doesn't get picked anymore. If he was playing we would probably need about 250 to stand a chance

    We got a game on our hands.
    Short boundaries means this is chaseable.
    One good thing about T20 is that the crowd don't care which side wins just all about boundaries and sixes.

    As they said on Sky before the match, we must be a great team if we can leave James Taylor out all summer.

    Current run rate of 6.6 after fifteen overs!

    Then I will ask you again, seeing as you didn't answer me the first time, who would you leave out for him ?

    For this one game, take your pick from Root, Ali, Tredwell, Woakes, Gurney (Bopara too but he was also stupidly left out of the ODI squad so he needed to play this game). My point is that they should never have left him out of the ODI squad and I thought that putting him in the T20 squad was them going some way to rectifying that mistake and getting him in an England shirt this summer. I just want to see him given a chance, what more can he do to earn that chance in the County game and whenever he is selected for the Lions?

    All of them are all-rounders or bowlers though, seems silly.

    In the end he should be playing ODIs there's no doubt about that. Tests and T20 I'm not so sure.

    Moeen in particular needs to play because of his bowling.

    Taylor has one big drawback - He cannot bowl. Root, Ali, Ravi all add that bowling option. Taylor would only ever replace an opener or Morgan and that isn't going to happen.

    No-one really knows, it's all a bit ignorant from Indian fans TBH. Something to do with Pakistan even though he was born in England>:(:confused:

    Well that was odd, good for Dhoni that he's practically a god in India, because if that had been anyone else it would have been seen as pretty shite cricket, those last couple of balls.

    Strange tactics from Dhoni
    It's not as if Rayudu is a novice

    Imagine if that was a Pakistan player or a certain kiwi doing that.......

    Well done for England.

    But please Getting on for 2 hours to compete 20 overs, If it had been rules of T20 Blast, Indua would have won
