Come on you Kiwis!

Lift that cup! I've spent more time in NZ than I have in England.

A woman was on camera waving the Vs and shouting, “All the way from the USA!” :rolleyes:

Most of the crowd are Indian fans, I think!

If they lose, it won't be down to "choking".
It will be because NZ bowl (and field) out of their skins.

It's a tricky pitch to bat on, so I can't see England tonking it to all parts like they did in the semi.
But 240 is gettable, and they have plenty of overs to get there. No need to go charging off from the start.

Thought that was gone.

50% of the ball has to be hitting. Bonkers.

I don't have an interest in this or the sport, but surely England are going to win this tournament.

Well, at least with Roy getting out, there'll be no recriminations after his first-ball reprieve.

Bookies have England 2/7. Wish I could share their optimism

Proper bat and ball contest. Some excellent deliveries that have been almost unplayable and a couple of fantastic shots for four.

Yeah.

If England do manage to win, it would be a shame if decisions overshadowed it.

If they show that cunt with what looks like a carrot on his head, I’m going to google the cost of a 1 hour hitman.
