That reverse sweep on the 4th ball of the innings by Munro was an amazing shot.
Not seen many sixes off a reverse sweep. Has anyone else?

Nice transfers , Billy.

I transferred the captaincy from Afridi to Shoiab in the minute as Shoaib always used to come in before Afridi in the batting order and Pakistan were batting first.

I transferred Captaincy from Gayle to Butler as England batted first and Botlur is usally 1 down.

Both backfired with regards to captaincy choices . at least I got their points.

Me too, had Afridi in but switched to Malik when I saw Malik was batting 4, though he didnt come in until the end. I also switched Gayle to Bravo, at the last minute as Bravo was batting 4 and bowling, and he dropped down the order too.
Had a shocking day dropping 800 places, though I knew it wouldnt be good as I am geared up for Friday as I have 8 players in each game - fingers crossed.

But with the changes I have made in the last couple of days, I have definately made progress and now climbed to 7th from 14th spot.

Threw my early advantage away, with Stokes in the England game. Still in touch though. 400 from Afridi proves there can be big swings. Long long way to go yet.....

Many thanks - I had some beneficial captain choices early, but had a couple of shockers later on with the 2 x semi finals having my lowest scoring player in each as my captain.
Really enjoyed the game and just a shame we missed out on the World Cup with that devastating last over.
