Great all-round performance from team England! Brilliant aggressive batting to back the bowling effort. We will have a new #CWC19 winner and it should be a memorable final. Tough luck Australia #ENGvAUS

Congratulations to @ECB_cricket for a convincing win. Won in facets of the game. Dominated ODI cricket over the last couple of years and deserve your place in the final, at Lords. #CWC19 #ENGvAUS #AUSvENG #ENGvNZ #NzvEng

I'm delighted the final on Sunday will be free to watch. More cricket should be on terrestrial TV, so more people can enjoy it. It was a mistake to take it off.#ENGvAUS #CWC19
