Bit of a fightback from SA. 200+ at least gives them something to try and defend.

India absolutely dominated every game start to finish in the group stages and semis and now ballsing up the final. Feel a bit sorry for them really, but it is funny.

At 47-3 India must've thought they had this in the bag. Step forward Travis Head. Not bad at this cricket stuff is he?

Little better to watch than the bit where Ben Stokes shifts gears and just starts twatting everything to Mars

The bloke is a machine, he’s just had a knee operation and plays like this. |

Very good performance by England. India virtually impossible to beat at home and England have given themselves a good chance here. Think India will chase the runs but you never know.

Getting a bit fun in Hyderabad but we should take a moment to laugh at Aus losing to West Indies B.
Tremendous stuff.

That was great. One of the best overseas wins and Pope's innings could be the best ever for England overseas, from a guy who has looked absolutely lost until he got to about 20 in that innings when batting in India.
Still think India will win 4-1, it's taken a generational innings for us to win by 20. India are just better than us. Best chance we have is then overreacting and creating ridiculous pitches for the last four games and England winning a few tosses.

Been a while since we’ve seen a new stroke but that ridiculously wristy overhead scoop shot thingy that Pope pulled out of the bag a couple of times might become his trademark.

I think the highest 1st innings deficit and going on to beat India at home was the Aussies with 64(?). England were 190 down on first innings scores - massive effort.

So, 399 to chase. That’s impossible…but this is England. You. Just. Never. Know.
