Just turned this on to watch and not sure i have ever seen two international bowlers in Woakes and Ali look so poor, that could be harsh but in the 20 mins iv watched must have seen 15 6’s and Ali looking like a club 2nd team bowler
Not harsh woakes having a shocker dived over the ball that goes for 4 followed by bowling an 10  ball over  finishes with  0 for 91 off 10

Rashid showed up!!

Game can go either way. Boom 4 wickets. 1 run and even that was a (harsh) drop.

Rashid got his reward for being prepared to give the ball some flight in a game where the ball was disappearing to all parts.  Shows huge character to be able to do that.  I think it shows just how much he has improved under Morgan's captaincy.  By a long chalk the best captain England have had in any format since Vaughan had to retire

Rashid in nutshell? You mean match winner and maybe Englands best ODI bowler over the let few years? Everyone went round the park, so fair play to him for stepping up to the plate when the game was in the balance . Takes some guts that.

Plunkett 8-0-40-0
Wood 10-0-60-4

That's why we won the match. The only two bowlers not to get destroyed.

Rashid gets a few cheap wickets against lower order/tailenders. That's his level.

Without Wood and Plunkett we've have lost.

Get your point but you could say the same about a lot of things, so gonna have to agree to disagree  :D When Rashid came on for the last over he was bowling to two set guys who really should have won the game for them, they didn't however as he took wickets.

I think we probably want to give the bowlers a break, they were on the end of a great innings by one of the greatest hitters the games ever seen, on a dead flat wicket and with very short straight boundaries. That's tough going, especially for the spinners, think I read the straight boundaries were around 55-65m, even I could clear that!

Would be interesting to know how many of those bowling performances ended up on the winning side.

All said and done. That final over was just brilliant. To have the guts to toss it up in the 49th over and back yourself deserve appreciation.

As a spinner myself I can appreciate where you're coming from, but the damage had already been done.
