Not confident at all, we will throw a few wickets away to the crappiest seamer (Broad) and then fold like a deckchair v Swann also losing a few wickets to whichever part time offspinner they throw the ball to. It's just how we roll.

If Taylor and McCullum stick around for 30 overs, this match is over. But they won't.
