[Borges]

Get a move on now; don't let the run rate touch nine.

Keeping England down to under 300 will be a herculean task. Need them to lose 3 or 4 before they reach 50.

How to beat this England team ? Mankad all of them.

How to beat this England team? Restrict them to below 430 and then chase it down with ease. Or bat first, score 430 and relax.

Tbh our bowling lineup is quite good now. imo. Obviously not the best in the world (between Ind and SA for that I reckon) but I at least think it will perform well.

Archer and Woakes will probably be the opening partnership. Curran the third seamer and Ali and Rashid as the two spinners (Stokes to be used for a few overs). Don't think Wood will breakdown but might not be fully fit for a number of games.

Most concerning thing has been Rashid's form but he had a decent game yesterday. Ali won't take wickets but will hopefully be economical

Stokes is absolutely garbage as an ODI bowler, always has been. He doesn't take many wickets, nor does he keep things tight. So overrated with the white ball in hand

I don't think Steyn, Rabada, Nigidi, Tahir would let them get those kind of scores.
