Anyhow, that's your lot for tonight. From Andrew Miller and Sahil Dutta, and Gnasher in Adelaide, it's goodnight, and see you on Friday. In the meantime, why not go and follow South Africa and India in Durban.
Woakes is sounding very calm and collected after his matchwinning effort - "never in doubt" he says. Collingwood says it was Andy Flower's call to push him up the order after "looking good in the nets". Which goes to show, that phrase isn't always an empty platitude.
Of Watson's assault on Swann, "that was pure hitting" says Collingwood. But the team did well to haul it back in.
Cameron White, on his first day of captaincy, says: "We weren't far away, but one or two things weren't 100%". Watson, meanwhile, is getting used to looking crestfallen after England games. "It was nice to contribute the way I did, but it doesn't matter how you perform if you don't get the team over the line."
As an Ipswich boy, Watson admits the Queensland floods have been at the front of his mind all week. The Adelaide crowd raised A$24,899 tonight, which will help.
The jubilation in England's dug-out was unbridled. They really really do care about winning everything at the moment. All that talk about the Ashes not being the be-all-and-end-all, it's actually possible to believe it.
Meanwhile, somewhere in Adelaide's Bradman Stand press box, Gnasher is having kittens as he writes, rewrites and rewrites again a match report that was looking so routine for 15 overs. It will appear here
Wow. That was epic. That is England's eighth successive Twenty20 victory, which is a new record for the format, and they are also unbeaten in all formats for 16 series and counting, regardless of what happens in the second match on Friday.
Spare a thought for poor Watto - 59 from 31 balls and 4 for 15, and he still couldn't finish on the right side. It's not been his season, clearly.
Paine is up to the stumps, everyone is on the one
England's bench thought they'd won there!
The tension is palpable, as White juggles his field
He's been on the bench all through the Ashes, now ... is this his moment?
Shahzad needs to get off the strike, first and foremost, and let the debutant Woakes sort things out
