#still need some end of innings fireworks to protect a score in case Gayle is in his 6 hitting grove

 

[Titanic]

Buttler... SMASH... straight.... SIX

Hoik to leg for 2

114-2 (14 overs)

 

[LlcoolJ]

Root gone for 48.

 

[LlcoolJ]

C'mon England. Big finish please.....

 

[Saturn]

I would expect these two to start teeing off with 4 overs to go.

Edit: SIX!

 

[Saturn]

And another!

Edit: Buttler gone.

 

[Titanic]

England 182-6 (20 overs)

Without any great fireworks... that is slightly above my expectations.

A sporting target.

W Indies 2/1

 

[Hiney]

You get the feeling that if we get Gayle out soon, we win.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Wital vicket from Rashid! Only 4 off that over - bowling bowling!

 

[Hiney]

Obviously I want England toi win, but I love watching Chris Gayle bat.

He looks like he doesn't give a shit as he strokes the ball into the top tier.

 

[Pavilionaire]

The game is evenly poised.

 

[Mr Smggles]

Everything is on Gayle. If he goes, you feel WI will crumble. But he has the quality to ride the whole innings and win the game for them.

 

[Horton's halftime iceberg]

You get the feeling that if we get Gayle out soon, we win.

And if we don't

 

[Pavilionaire]

Chris Gayle's winning this on his own. 3 sixes in a row off Ali, that's as good as game over.

 

[spring hall convert]

Gayle's a fine player but our bowling was piss poor.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Jordan's figures 4-0-24-0 with 13 dot balls out of 24 and no sixes conceded. Against a rampant Chris Gayle that's not bad, although I suppose the fact he didn't bag his wicket has left the spinners exposed to his monstrous bat.
