Harry Brook: It is carnage, isn't it!. We would have bowled if we had won the toss. We have put it (the loss) behind us. We will try to score as many runs as possible. We have one change.
Tom Abell: We are going to have a bowl. The pitch has been under covers, anything can happen in 25 balls and that's why the decision to bowl. We need at least 2 or 3 wins to qualify.
