Well done Aussies, especially Maxwell (Lancashire player and by all accounts a top guy).
Yep, no bitterness or negativity at all. Two very well-matched teams.even morgan makes captaincy mistakes![]()

cracking game and series
Yeah. Very well balanced and a great summer. Enjoyed all the chat on this thread too!Yep, no bitterness or negativity at all. Two very well-matched teams.
Agreed it's been the only thing worth watching for ages.What a match to end the series.
I've got to say, England, the touring teams and Sky have done a brilliant job this summer. No, it's not the same without the crowds, but it has been utterly absorbing. Some great cricket, and the commentary teams doing a great job.
My problem with including him in the squad is then he'll use his political influence to ensure he always plays when he doesn't deserve to.I can't believe anyone could have watched these 11 balls and still think Root has no place in the T20 15. Such a classy player.
I remember the great, and irreplaceable, Henry Blofeld, Blowers, commentating on TMS.Found this ... what a fine! In my opinion, still the most elegant and classy looking batsman of all time.
Maybe maybe not, but he's in the best 15 T20 players in the country and has done it in a World Cup before. Come the tournament he might not be in the best nick, but it's asinine to take inferior players like Billings because of a fear that Root might do something. I don't think that's been a feature of Morgan's captaincy and if Root had that much power he'd be in the side already.My problem with including him in the squad is then he'll use his political influence to ensure he always plays when he doesn't deserve to.
Also Vitality is a level below IPL, let along T20i.
Yeah, that’s a historic piece of commentary.I remember the great, and irreplaceable, Henry Blofeld, Blowers, commentating on TMS.
He loved Gower, and if I remember rightly? In one match, he described him as he came onto the pitch, as though he was like a Greek God, his whites and golden hair blowing in the wind .....
RIP Blowers, the world is a little less without your eccentric attitude

Top lad. Hope no-one starts insulting a gay fella or Stokesy'll have to sort them out.My mate lives in NZ now and just ran into Stokes at a bar who’s fully out on the scoops
he just sent us a pic of them together, apparently he was really sound
have they reopened the border? I thought it was impossible to get into new zealandMy mate lives in NZ now and just ran into Stokes at a bar who’s fully out on the scoops

He’s gone back because his dads ill and he’s a NZ citizen anyway as he was born there so probably just had to quarantine on arrival or something like thathave they reopened the border? I thought it was impossible to get into new zealand
when is stokes joining IPL?He’s gone back because his dads ill and he’s a NZ citizen anyway as he was born there so probably just had to quarantine on arrival or something like that
im not sure if we even is to be honest? Doesn’t seem to be any concrete news about itwhen is stokes joining IPL?
Not yet, but it possibly may be as England are also now waiting to see if their members have tested positive. Interesting article on CricInfo which gives some details on what’s gone on - LinkHas all of this one day series been called off?

Does make you wonder why England favoured Bess over Leach for the tests vs Windies and PakistanLeach has started nicely. Bess not so much, despite the wicket.
The answer probably is Leach wasn't bowling this well then. He's looked as good as I've seen him so far this match.Does make you wonder why England favoured Bess over Leach for the tests vs Windies and Pakistan
