At this rate, I think England will still win it.

41% of the tickets had been sold to supporters of India.

Yes and the Indian cricket team don't go home until tomorrow. A bit presumptuous if you ask me

Early to have lost your only challenge!

Shame after such great semi-finals the showcase match is so tediously dry!

Most finals are, I think. It's a shame, but there's rarely an incredible atmosphere in a finals Confused

I'm tense. The pub seems to have found some more belief that we can do this... but 91 from 76 in 12 overs 😬

This is England's to lose. We need wickets right now and they're not happening.

Are you a NervousKiwi at the moment?

Are you a NervousKiwi at the moment?
I certainly am. Grin

Although it's not too bad because I didn't expect us to win it. It would be an amazing surprise if we do.

Way off the run rate though.

GrouchyKiwi · 14/07/2019 18:00

But at this point in the game with 6 wickets in hand the run rate doesn't mean too much. Will be different if you lose a wicket.

Is it time to open a beer yet?

Bluebluered · 14/07/2019 18:07

They need to do something now. Last 10 overs we need to see some magic!!!

This is tense. They seem to be getting into a rhythm a bit now.

MockerstheFeManist · 14/07/2019 18:07

Ben & Joss will see England home if they stay.

Kiwis need a wicket

(or as they would say, a wuckit.)

BringMeTea · 14/07/2019 18:08

Can't bear the tension... Come on England!!

BringMeTea · 14/07/2019 18:09

Deffo time to open a beer btw...

PolkadotsAndMoonbeams · 14/07/2019 18:10

I've completely abandoned the ironing.

Bunnybigears · 14/07/2019 18:12

I'm surprised how positive people are being about and England win still. They need to start scoring A LOT more runs md they dont seem to have it in them.

GrouchyKiwi · 14/07/2019 18:13

I've been trying to follow the tennis while watching this and I'm checking it less and less often. This is getting tense again after the last two tighter overs.

JacquesHammer · 14/07/2019 18:15

Poor planning to have the cricket final and men’s tennis final on the same day!

Bluebluered · 14/07/2019 18:15

They’ve built a good partnership. They need to keep it together now. I want to see something happen now though!!!

And the British GP! I was watching three different things at one point today.

kiltedsheep · 14/07/2019 18:18

Ah, this is the thread I needed. We can all console each other when the inevitable happens and the rest of the batting order are skittled

Seeline · 14/07/2019 18:19

Momentarily defected to the tennis. Really exciting!!

ajandjjmum · 14/07/2019 18:19

I've got RSI from changing channels so much!
