46 needed off 20.
Can England pull off a miracle here?

England bundled out for 211 and Pakistan cantering only two wickets down with about 173 on the board.
England were got out by some sharp bowling from Pakistan I've got to hand it to them. And then we fell apart under the pressure. Really quality pace bowling.
And with the lower target easing the pressure a little, Pakistan have been able to bat brilliantly and still score quickly but without having to take that extra little risk that brings wickets. Will be a thumping win

I did say England would be bundled out in the semis. I have been proven correct. Pakistan has once again lived up to its enigmatic self. How is Boycs feeling? Much the same way I was feeling after his team unceremoniously dumped my Aussies I suspect.

I'm a bit disappointed however I watched much of our innings and Pakistan bowled very well. They had an excellent match and we had a poor one. But we had a good competition overall especially against NZ and Aus and we hung on against South Africa so overall I'm happy. Those were big teams we took down.

No ball wicket and a catch off a free hit then a wife then a four. Will tamin get going now? 63/2 off 13 is pretty decent. Pandya or whatever just bowled a rubbish over.

Re: ICC Champions Trophy: June 1-18, 2017 in England
Decent start, considering..
But 80/2 after 16 is still not enough.
This is a powerhouse of a BCCI batting line-up. We need 350 at least....which means 270 from remaining 32.
Not happening.
Expecting a collapse any minute.

163 in 30 overs is an awesome start.
Frankly not many teams can make it in this tournament.
Expects 315+ score target.
Game on !!

Sportsbet had Bang holding at 6.25. Has anyone offered wider odds on Bangladesh?

Very disappointing.
264 is a nothing-score against BCCI.
Rohit alone scored 264 in an ODI once.

Key is getting Dhawan early. Rohit blocking till 20 or 30th over could work for Bangladesh if wickets fall in the interim.
Bangladesh's best chance of winning is to create scoreboard pressure. They need the top order blocking, and Dhawan won't. Rohit possibly will if wickets fall.

He would do nothing even for game against srilanka had he played.
He was given too much undue credit
