172-3 off 18. Gonna be some total this

Looks a good pitch with short boundaries.

187-4 off 19. Gonna be chasing over 200. Seem to have given away a lot of extras... Poor discipline maybe?

Had a look at the scorecard. Bairstow gave it a biff, 82 off 45 balls, also Brook, who I vaguely remember was touted an up and coming prospect a couple of years' ago, 48 off 16 balls.

I know he's not particularly liked on here, but bairstow is a hell of a sight better than some of that dross playing against NZ last week. Is he still in the white ball squads?

He lost his central contract last year, barely mentioned now unfortunately.
