ICC World Cup - England and Wales 2019
What bizarre scheduling, cricket world cup final & men's singles final occurring at the same time in the same city and then add the British grand prix not far away too.
Anything can happen! Lords is not usually a batters paradise, seam movement aplenty.

Add in some rain this morning, should clear before the start, but the extra swing will be an advantage for the fielding side. I sense England will bat first if they win the toss (positive thinking) but it might be the wrong decision. England will probably be good enough to win anyway, but it will even things up for trading purposes. (The only real chance for New Zealand is to bat second and chase around 310 or less)
Either side batting first would be happy to defend 275.
Don’t think the run line for either side will be anything like 310.
Hope I wrong .. will def b on the unders

I think batting first is correct call. Post a score and then defend it. I havent seen too many good chase downs in this tournament

Someone gonna be right.Eng 3.0
India 4.2
Aus 5.5
N.Zealnd 13
S.Africa 14
Pakistan 20
Windies 25
The Rest 130+
Eng have looked v impressive for the last yr. The weak link is the bowling, but maybe Archer can fill that gap.
I think Eng are still over-priced but can see its debateable, (and am talking my book, which has Eng v big winners, India level, and the rest all big losers).

NZ 77-1 after 18
Decent start this for them. 270 would be vuseful.
1.5 looks low for Eng.
