Win but not convincing at all....
However to go 3-0 down would have been disasterous so series now well open at 2-1 with 4 to go.

True rasta....true...
Some nervous moments there though!

Given the way England had played as of late I will most certainly take the win. I liked the deeper batting lineup and the different dimension Hales offers over Bell though what was he thinking on the run out?
Woakes bowled well, Jordan has a knack of taking important wickets and Root held England's run chase together at the end. On the negative side, Morgan continues to search for form and Stokes again disappointed with the ball.

Dilly,
Your man Stokes looks a mess, doesn't he? There is a sandwich missing somewhere for me.
I will still have Bell ahead of Baby face!
What a crap situation by Halo to run out Moeen?
I like what jordan added to the lineup.
Woakes bowled far too short for me.
I will take the win as 3-0 would have been a disaster.
Did not like the flurry of wickets but Babyface and Jos paced it well.
I hope Moeen discontinue trying to force it after fifty! He was trying to hit the crap out of the ball when he does not have to. His 61 over extra cover was something!
Come on England!

I can't see Bell or Morgan being dropped once the World Cup starts and so it would be nice if they could get some runs under their belt.
Who do you think replaces Cook in the 4th ODI? Bell or Taylor? I'd like to at least give Taylor some time in the middle but if Bell is definitely going to bat at 3 then I think he needs to play.
