Fleming: We have no problem with fielding first. The pitch and weather will assist our bowlers and hopefully we can get the cruicial wickets. Hopefully the pitch might settle down a bit by the time we come into bat. Our bowlers will be hoping to resrict England to an acheivable total, and that will be the key to success. We've gone with our proven lineup, and i am hoping that certain individuals stand up and take hold of this tournament.

Good luck Shailesh! Make sure the pitch, teams, and weather are all correct. Let's have a good match! Feel free to start as soon as you're ready.

England were bowled out for 123 in 15th over. Started off well with a partnership of 34 and then Vaughan and Butcher taking the score to 70/2. But Adams removed Butcher and Flintoff was runout for just 2. Vettori then took over and no one seemed comfortable against him on this pitch. Slow outfield made matters worse for England as well. Vaughan's wicket on 100 was crucial..could have added another 30-40 if stayed till the end.
So the total looks well short even with the conditions..lets see if England bowlers have different ideas..

well done shailesh...

Fleming: I'm extremely happy with the way we bowled to day. We managed to bowl out England for a very modest target thanks to some beautiful bowling from Dan, backed up well by Adams, Bond, and Oram. We're confident that we can chase this score, even under the conditions.

good luck vetts, I think you will pull this one off quite easily

 

[zimrahil]

well, the weather has brightened up and England's dismal performance has resulted in a rather empty looking Lord's

jonah and zimrahil was last seen in the bar, as being drunk is advisable whenever following England

 

[vetts]

Well it proved no problem.

 

[vetts]

Three forties, and the lone wicket to White.
