Yeah, I think we always knew that England were going to come hard and that's the way they play their cricket and it's entertaining.

But we knew if we could try and take wickets throughout the start of that game, we were always in it for the middle and the back end.

And you did take wickets.

Yeah, I think he batted excellently and showed that when you take it deep, when you've got that power in their lineup, that anything can happen, really.

But, you know, we were trying to do our best on a smallish field and a good wicket against a really good lineup to try and minimize their total where we could.

And we knew that wickets up the front end would hopefully do that.

As you can see, 200 wasn't that far above par.

today, but yeah, we probably let him get a few too many which hurt us in the chase.

Yeah, that was some impressive hitting.

We lost a few early, and for him to come out and just strike the ball from the get-go really put pressure on the England, and you can see that towards the back end.

Grant Stewart did the same thing when he came out, and it showed that when you get a little partnership together and put some pressure on, that anything can happen.

Yeah, I think a lot of the associate nations really put some pressure on some big nations.

And that's really exciting from the game's point of view, I think.

We're one of those teams who today we put some pressure on England and we had no right to really against Nepal.

We played a really good game of cricket as well.

So I think that's it's impressive across the competition that that's happening.

Good for the game, especially with 20 teams in the competition.

But I think it's just a matter of games under our belt in those situations against class opposition.

You know, one of the top ranked teams in the world for us who are ranked 27th to be coming out here and putting pressure on them is something that we should take great.

belief in that we can keep doing that moving forward.
