Ball is swinging both ways like a boomerang, no-one seems bothered to spend any time getting their eye in.

Maybe someone could remind them they still have 47 overs to get just over 200. No need to rush.

They using a 2 piece!
Seriously, there is something about the balls they have used all world cup, no other bowlers have swung it like they have. I know Dean Jones used to talk about getting balls that were around the 152g mark for swing. Balls that didnt swing were up around the 160g mark. Ive weighed a box of balls myself and found this variation

Smith needs to play the anchor role, and to keep Head from losing his head.

200 to go. The sloggers need to make some form of contribution so it’s not all left to Smith and Marnus.

Smith has reviewed everything every time and he doesn’t review that in a World Cup Final. FFS!

Anyway, the last 2 matches show that you don’t always need high scores for an exciting result.

Head was in no position to judge, at least 1m wide of the pitch, it baffles me why they dont stand on the pitch to make better judgements in these cases
