Urge everybody to check out the catch Moeen Ali has just made in the 5th ODI.

Absolutely spectacular.

Just seen it amazing catch. The umpires reaction behind tells you how fast the ball was travelling!

It's looking like we are going to get beaten unfortunately. 90 need from 20 overs.

Hard to call now

It is, 6 down and two new men in, just under 5 an over needed

Thought Curran's on the boundary was better. Good reactions and it stuck though.

Very much game on now.

63 to win 13 overs to go 3 wkts left.
Need to try and keep it tight now for a few overs

Rashid should have played in tests Smith for one couldn’t pick him

That dropped catch from Tye could be costly

mdd2 · Post by **mdd2** » Sun Jan 28, 2018 10:33 am

Paine dropped catch.

Could prove costly.

Jake Ball faints.
Dehydration?

Caernarfon_Claret · Post by **Caernarfon_Claret** » Sun Jan 28, 2018 10:58 am

Ball can't finish his spell.
Root might have to step in.

mdd2 · Post by **mdd2** » Sun Jan 28, 2018 10:59 am

Well that's a problem if the game goes to the last few overs. who is there who can bowl two overs and keep the runs down?

Caernarfon_Claret · Post by **Caernarfon_Claret** » Sun Jan 28, 2018 11:03 am

32 from 30

Caernarfon_Claret · Post by **Caernarfon_Claret** » Sun Jan 28, 2018 11:04 am

They're going with Root

Well it seems Ball is bowling his 9th over

Caernarfon_Claret · Post by **Caernarfon_Claret** » Sun Jan 28, 2018 11:06 am

Willey one over left, Curran two and Ball (or his replacement) two.

Caernarfon_Claret · Post by **Caernarfon_Claret** » Sun Jan 28, 2018 11:07 am

My mistake Root was warming up but Ball must have recovered sufficiently.

mdd2 · Post by **mdd2** » Sun Jan 28, 2018 11:08 am

Not a good one but still need 6 an over

Oh I though most were using pen and paper and contacting the message board by carrier pigeon.

Good shot that from Zampa when they only needed 24 from 22 balls.

Good to see it's not just England who hit the self-destruct button.

Ali looks like he is back to his best what happened in the test matches very strange for him

Caernarfon_Claret · Post by **Caernarfon_Claret** » Sun Jan 28, 2018 11:21 am

Doesn't look like it'll go into the last over.
Either a wicket or the runs will get knocked off.

bedfords · Post by **bedfords** » Sun Jan 28, 2018 11:21 am

Awesome from the 2nd best Curran brother.

joey13 · Post by **joey13** » Sun Jan 28, 2018 11:23 am

Curran very impressive

Bordeauxclaret · Post by **Bordeauxclaret** » Sun Jan 28, 2018 11:24 am

Five for Curren, plus two dropped catches from Bairstow off his bowling. Outstanding performance.

Caernarfon_Claret · Post by **Caernarfon_Claret** » Sun Jan 28, 2018 11:24 am

Curran is electric.

Just under 55k turned up to Perth’s new stadium.

The England team held their nerve pretty well there after getting a score that was a bit below par & having a mainline bowler who had to dig deep just to get through his overs.
I was really impressed by Tom Curran's performance with the pressure right up. Been watching him regularly down the Oval for a couple of years & he's developed really well - especially this last year. A good reflection on his coaches and the people around him (as well as his own hard work and confidence).
I always have to chuckle when his name goes up on the scoreboard though - Currant T. I'm hoping Surrey sign up an Alan Sultan and they get to bat together.

The crowds reaction said it all, a collective disbelief.

There's an Iranian cleric calleed Ebrahim Raisi. Maybe he has a relative called Nish, (or something similar), that Surrey could sign to complete the trio of sweet dried fruits.
