The bowling of the two teams and intensity in the field is a good indicator why both are in the final (of course with the luck of a team kinda bottling it to let them come second)

Don't matter. You don't need 10 RPO here. This kind of chase and pressure, he is one the best to have out there. He saw them through Lanka chase also when rest of the T20 big hitters choked.
Yeah agreed, always good to have a constant like Stokes in the team. That being said he's getting way too many dots.

I think you lot are being too harsh on stokes here with 4 wickets down already.
The bowling from Pakistan is making this difficult and the first innings showed it's not easy to get a lot of runs

He really didn’t need to bowl the slower ball. Did the same v India

Afridi injury is going to be the game changer here looks like.

Edit: he is back bowling!
Was a poor decision not to bowl him through I think. Or even bring him back after buttler was out. Ball was doing bits and he could have tore through England

He really shouldn’t bowl. It’s the final, but you can’t risk making this worse.

Clutch innings by Stokes. Without him they would've been 7-8 down already.
Him and salt for those 6 to 8 overs at a run a ball was perfect. The last few overs he's took on too many dots though and stopped the strike rotation
