every player has performed their role in this team

ideally I'd love maxwell averaging 60 at a strike rate of 200 like he did last world cup but he's going at just over 30 at a strike rate of 200 which is his job. Carey has been similar at the death as well which has been a real delight

Only 2 things need to improve for us to be firing on all cylinders

Stoinis' batting and Carey's keeping. 

Stoinis doesn't have to be a maxwell but if he can consistently get 30 odd off 25 odd that would take the team to another level

as a former bowler I'm thrilled to see england's approach fail and hopefully fail them out of the tournament

lesson learnt: value your bowlers and pick your best 4!

Lesson learnt: should have hit the sack earlier :-(

Half of England’s team deserve the sack

what a good win and even better on their home turf :)
I watched the start of our 2nd innings, wow our bowling was in the zone.
Loved Behrendorff's inswinger taking Vince ! followed by Starc's LB of Root !
What a platform that set.

Smacked those Poms. 

Master stroke picking the two left armers. Have always rated Behrendorff.

Grazor have not watched a lot of this WC.. what is wrong with Carey's keeping?

English fan?

They could still win if they make the semi's

its only a 2 game knockout which helps a crash or burn team like england

missed stumpings, dropped catches, savable byes

its been a rare blemish on the team along with Stoinis' batting

Good win to Australia!

England fought back quite well after being 3-25.

to be fair we bowled out our lesser bowlers as soon as we had them in trouble. It may have made the victory margin smaller but also made the victory more assured!

Aye, the clue is in the name.

India will be tough on their home ground in Birmingham, I guess the Kiwis might not be that ar sed in the last game having secured qualification...
Not holding my breath though.

Finchy to get back in the Test squad with the Ashes coming up?
