Re: The Final
It is too early to tell after one match. You can't talk about consistency that way. Not in this format.
England deserved the win, they outplayed on all fronts the Aussies. Unfortunately doing so well as to get to the final after bumbling around last year probably means that Clarkey's complete unsuitability for this format will go unquestioned again. Today was his best innings by far of the tournament and it was a 27 off 27 balls. He is incapable of being of any real use in any situation. The shame is that he is a good captain, but he's a liability.
