252-9

England don't really have anyone who can't hold a bat, but hard to see this last pair getting them to 280 let alone 300.
 
Without counting our chickens, because only one side has batted - it is so good to get one of the favourites first up in the draw

Wood can tonk a ball
 
Dew working in our favour with it skidding on to the bat. It will slow a bit later, but that is where the likes of Latham come into their own.

Ravindra coming of age - he looks a million dollars now he is in his correct spot in the order. He might take Young's spot when Williamson is back.
 
Ravindra 53 off 37 balls.

99-1 after 12 overs.

Young's bad luck aside, about as good a start as you could hope for.
 
25 overs down. Halfway, not that overs matter anymore.

187-1 needing 96 off 25 overs

Conway 98*
Ravindra 87*

Would be an epic collapse to lose from here.
 
Good win. Young was definitely unlucky but you have to make your own luck sometimes. He's definitely going when Williamson is back.
