This is why Morgan put the foot down in all the group games. Effectively gave Eng 1/2 a point more.

Morgan doesn't miss a trick

We have lost momentum I think and a couple of injuries not helping.
Vince coming in for Roy probably, hopefully Vince still has good vibes from his last outing in an England shirt.

India going out can only be a good thing for the game as a collective. Great stuff.

I can't see a Scottish upset so it will be a very tough semi against NZ.

I wouldn't be surprised if Bairstow opens and Billings plays.

Yes could do, Billings probably the better fielder of the two and can hit it in unconventional areas, Vince is the better bat but a close call.

Love to see Livingstone get enough balls to really do some damage, we are going to need something special against NZ from someone.

I just feel we have lost a bit of confidence and New Zealand and Australia gaining it- Pakistan have looked really good

Astonished that Scotland didn't see the value in playing Tahir before today. Slow left arm is just so effective this WC.

Billings into the middle order and Moeen to open is also an option. Fell like the team needs another 'finisher' down in that middle order with Butler opening and Morgan is average form.

Went with Greaves as he offers so much more with the bat and in the field.

Not sure that's true - played Greaves, Watt and Tahir today. Seems that Evans got the nod ahead of Tahir and I'm not convinced that balance of the attack was right at all.

We played they today as it didn’t really matter. A two seamer attack is a pretty radical option.

If we had Davey, Sharif and Wheal available I'd go with them. IMO Evans has been a huge weak link for some time. He was abysmal in the Zimbabwe series prior to the qualifying round as well so not like they didn't have form to base it on.

Much rather have seen Tahir in as Evans doesn't add much with the bat or in the field.

Billings has to come in for me.  I am not convinced that these conditions need one of Vincent or Mallan.  It certainly doesn't need both of them

Think I'd actually just move Bairstow up to open, then maybe bring in Willey for more bowling options.

Butler
Bairstow
Malan
Livingstone
Morgan
Ali
Woakes
Willey
Jordan
Rashid
Wood

I'd have Ali above Morgan but otherwise pretty close.
