England 20-20 Cricket

We went to see the Twenty20 Cricket at the Rose Bowl in Southampton today. It was Dad's birthday treat from the lads...
The Barmy Emsworth Army...Freddy, Will, Reggie, Dad and Pete... 
Australia batted first and Aaron Finch scored an amazing 156 off 63 balls, including 14 sixes. It was awesome to watch. This was the Highest International Twenty20 score ever and the most sixes in an innings.  Also 248 was the second highest International Twenty20 innings ever.
England had a good go at matching Australia but fell short by 39 runs....
Great fun!
