ICC Champions Trophy, Semi-Finals

[Simster]

The baby faced assasin throws his wicket away just as his 50 and victory are in sight. 146/3

Root

No need for that.

Root b Duminy 48

Nice 100 partnership with Trott though. Think those two may come to know each others game pretty well over the next few months.

 

[Pavilionaire]

It hardly matters we're only 30-odd away from victory and gives Morgan a bit more valuable time at the crease. A little cameo of 20 would do his confidence good after a modest few innings recently.

Nice ton partnership from Trott and Root, all good stuff with the Ashes coming up.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Trott is a runs machine. No one better right now.

Ironic that when we have plenty of time his run rate is 90 per 100 balls, but when more urgency is required it's back nearer 70. I'm not knocking him, he does what he does extremely well, like Michael Vaghan before him it's a shame he wasn't in the England side a couple of years earlier.

All done. Was it ever in doubt?

 

[Pavilionaire]

All over, another final for the England cricket team.

 

[pasty]

All over. Fairly comfortable 7 wicket win

Sri Lanka struggling in very tough conditions, in the other semi.

94-3 after 31 overs. Going to have to really motor now to post a defendable total.

 

[Titanic]

Sri Lanka have continued to struggle, never getting any momentum, the wicket is slow with movement for the seamers and some turn for the spinners, overcast conditions - 160-6 (47 overs)

 

[Titanic]

Sri Lanka close on 181-8... hard to believe that India will struggle to get these at just 3.6 an over... but who knows?

Seems to be a decent stream.

I'd have Bell, Finn and Morgan far above Broad on the knob score

Are you sure, keaton?
