Final | England vs Pakistan | Melbourne, 13 November 2022

[morgieb]

Barring something weird happening with DLS this game feels done. Pakistan's gonna struggle to get to 140.

 

[Adorable Asshole]

Over.

I don't if it's a hard wicket to bat on or the batting is complete ****?

 

[DriveClub]

Will be lucky to get 150 here now

 

[Howe_zat]

Score will probably be about 160. It felt like England got on top of them for a bit but it's more like Rashid's spell has held them back to a chaseable score

It could also be less than 160.

 

[Burgey]

This total is 3 rungs below par. par is 180+ against this eng team

A par score isn’t dictated by the opposition batting line up though.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Curran getting wickets in any format will never cease to amaze me

Yeah, his transformation into a gun T20 bowler was something I didn't see coming.

Shadab spoons one to Woakes at deep-ish mid off as I type.

 

[Burgey]

His pace reminds me of chaminda vaas

Tbf that used to amaze me as well

 

[Victor Ian]

hey, how come no one noticeed 123/5 before that wicket.

 

[straw man]

KFC should do a “Shadab and take my money” ad

Fergie Shadab just Shadab Shadab

 

[morgieb]

What the hell

 

[grecian]

TBH, I've felt this way about S.Curran since the start of his career, I mean it's time to say somehow he is good.

Brook may end up the most useless member of a World Cup winning side ever.

 

[Burgey]

Pakistan bring the chaos. Every. Single. Time.

Also Harry Brook really isn’t all that is he

 

[Ashes81]

Always tricky to know what's a good scoring but this looks under par from Pakistan - good ocer from Jordan

 

[ashley bach]

Nawaz moves along to 3

Yup really needed 150 if not 160

 

[subshakerz]

This so far is reminding me of NZ vs Aus final in 2015. One team high on spirit only to be taken apart clinically by a superior team

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

Nawaz (5)

 

[slippy888]

England will pass up here Pakistan batting has been exposed they needed at least 160 to challenge England today

 

[_Ed_]

Pakistan bring the chaos. Every. Single. Time.

After being so outlandishly good against us in the semi-final, I was hoping they'd do the decent thing and at least provide some entertainment with something approaching a repeat performance in the final. Not to be at this stage. Sigh.

What I like about Sam Curran is his heart and competitive nature...He doesn't tense up just cause it's a final ...He plays with a freedom that's really important to have in big games .
