Don’t really know what to say about that.

Bad luck?

First two overs went very well.
But a master play now needed to win this.
Opps, I should have said a miracle needed.

Yep. Kohli has had a terrible tournament.

Likewise his portly ginger nemesis, Bairstow.

I was going to add I wouldn't bet against us not reaching 100, but thought that too negative....
A little birdie tells me you might be right!

Some top bowling. England just can’t live with it.

It's not over until it's over. But it's probably over.

I will always give my team the benefit of the doubt but, even though the Indian bowlers were on point the least said about our batting the better. That was a hammering and well played India. They were a different class.

Nice to seen Flintoff looking well, at least.

That was a shambles.

Bairstow should not be anywhere near this team, he's absolutely hopeless for pretty much every game.

I think that Mo and Jonny won’t be seen again in white ball. There will be changes as poor performances in the 20/50 over game will drive that. India were excellent and credit must go to them. If the coach is judged on team performances then Mott, looks on shaky ground.

Can't argue with people calling for changes. We're Notts locals and we've seen Outlaws peak and then slump, with huge drop offs from the likes of Hales, this feels similar. What was the point of even taking Duckett? We didn't really turn up.

India and SA are rightfully in the final, by far the best two in the tournament, I just hope it's an even game and not decided by pitch or toss.

Watching the IPL, India have an absolutely ridiculous strength in depth of short format players, there's loads of talented IPL Indian players absolutely nowhere near this India team, it's scary.

Utter bobbins.

Too many players playing too erratocally. Typical England across the formats.

Yep the next group are all around 24 or 25 and look very very strong.
