Eng did great to put up good total despite batting first under toughest conditions and then fight till end despite bowling second under dew. Any other team, NZ would have chased in 15 overs. Overall unfortunate that toss deciding all major games.

The other issue with Willey is that he isn't a death bowler. Our up power play bowlers are doing a good job.

What a nonsense that bowlers are being rigidly pigeon-holed like this.

Good effort lads... unfortunately things don't always work out...

Worried in case Aus cause an upset tomorrow... Southern hemisphere final may be in order... :(

We missed a Mills/Jofra death bowler. I did think another option with the ball would have been useful, but then we didn't bowl Moen either. That said, not sure anyone would have made a difference as Mitchell and Neesham batted very well. We missed our lengths, but you've still got to hit them.

ENG vs SA - ENG won the toss and elected to field first.

Toss/dew factors are important but these are professionals and they have to make it work.

Does Willey possess the pace or skillset to bowl effectively at the death? I've yet to see evidence of either in a significant career. Cracking bowler but not a T20 death overs specialist in any sensible estimation.

We lost momentum and a couple of injuries in this tournament, it was unrealistic to expect Buttler to carry on his amazing form.

Well done NZ they are a good side and deserved winners. Only the most one eyed England fans think we won the 50 over final by anything other than the skin on our teeth so maybe fate was due in this tournament.

Cannot support anyone left in the tournament but if the blackcaps take the final then good for them.
Pakistan v Australia might depend on one individual performance it’s hard to pick a winner.

Maybe one of the other 'powerplay bowlers' could have done the job? Or one of the 'inbetween bit bowlers'?

Bloody Nasser Hussain and his verbal diarrhea. :o

England bowlers just got their lengths wrong. Everyone makes mistakes. How about NZ form in the last 2 years. Test Champions, an overthrow away from being ODI champions and at the very least T20 finalists. Wow.
