England should win this comfortably....very disappointing and underwhelming by the Aussies...but then again nothing is very simple vs the Aussies. Lets see. Early wickets needed. To me, Stokes could be the difference.

Won’t get within 30

Enjoying this little monologue from Morgan overlaying the highlights.

Hoping for a England loss to make this superb tourny even more interesting. I think Aussie are a bit short though. Big letdown from 176/1 it should havs been a 325 minimum target.

England clear favs from here on this pitch but all it takes is a nice spell ftom cummins/starc and game on

Beef with cheese, all the salads bar onion, jalapeños, garlic and hot chilli sauces please.
the guys at my local place have got the idea that I want BBQ, garlic and chilli and I just have to go with it for the rest of my life now

So, missed Australia bat, just come in to see England need 286 to win...commentators say England a tad scrappy with the fielding.. how are England’s chances for the winning 286
Pretty much even. Average winning score at lord's is 288. Pitch still doing a bit.

Umm, Aus lose they still make the semi's. Eng lose and they are practically done....batting pressure to cause an implode by Eng :)

Yeah, India and Australia are quite similar in their batting, except Australia lack a Hardik Pandya.
Maxwell is definitely a Pandya IMO.

The difference for mine is that your batting lineup for the most part is an upgrade on ours (although Dhawan is probably on par with Warner/Finch and the two are clearly better than Rahul)

Kinda funny we should be questioning whether Stokes qualifies as an allrounder because of his bowling average when:
(a) he was the best bowler in that innings
(b) he's in the same side as Moeen Ali; who nobody seems to question as an allrounder despite having a far worse bowling average

Do you get the jalapeños?

I have had bbq with the other two (I mean, who hasn’t?) but certainly I find it’s way too much.

Looks like it'll be a cracker of a chase, but so much hinges on the new ball burst as it looks like Starc and Cummins could well be in business if they bowl in the right areas. Anything from Vince will be a bonus, Bairstow and/or Root need to bat big and anchor the innings. If England manage to take it deep into the innings the middle to lower order should see them through.

It's the holy trinity. Though I usually order the snack pack instead (which is like a kebab but instead of it being a roll it's on a plate of chips. Also no salad)
