Guest MattP Posted 20 February 2015 Posted 20 February 2015 Imagine if they knock this off before the supper break
IOWFOX Posted 20 February 2015 Posted 20 February 2015 Can I change that 25 to 10. Being shown how good a wicket this is to bat on. The sad thing is, the format of the world cup is so ridiculous that we will still easily make the super 8's.
IOWFOX Posted 20 February 2015 Posted 20 February 2015 How did we convincingly beat India the other week? Saw the majority of their game against Pakistan and they looked very good.
chrishlcfc Posted 20 February 2015 Posted 20 February 2015 Ive just had £10 on Scotland to beat us in the next match, call me unpatriotic but it's just easy money
Lionator Posted 20 February 2015 Posted 20 February 2015 To be fair there was a lot of warnings that the minnows could struggle against the better teams in the World Cup.
IOWFOX Posted 20 February 2015 Posted 20 February 2015 40 minute break with 12 runs needed after 112 off 9 overs, as if it wasnt already a massive joke!
chrishlcfc Posted 20 February 2015 Posted 20 February 2015 Gutless and embarrassing. ive played and watched a lot of cricket before and never have I seen a defeat as bad as this one.
IOWFOX Posted 20 February 2015 Posted 20 February 2015 There is one thing we are good at, 112-2 chasing 123 and all you can hear is guys chanting England. If only the team had as much spirit as the barmy army.

surrifox Posted 20 February 2015 Posted 20 February 2015 sadly this bunch just aren't very good , not as good as they think they are and Moores is out of his depth and should not be involved in international cricket
Alexikokopops Posted 20 February 2015 Posted 20 February 2015 Well I expected to lose but that was a spectacular loss.
cambridgefox Posted 20 February 2015 Posted 20 February 2015 If Finn had bowled 10 overs he would have gone for 245!( mathematically ) We are shocking,at least some of you got some kip. BBC news just made me laugh when they said it was a day /night game but didn't need to put the flood lights on.
Bobby Hundreds Posted 20 February 2015 Posted 20 February 2015 The ODI set-up needs a complete overhaul. We have got loads of good 50 over players who aren't getting a look in. Moores needs to go before the West Indies tour.
ealingfox Posted 20 February 2015 Posted 20 February 2015 Genuinely shocked. Thrashed in every single department. I hope nobody notices that I'm English today.
notnow john Posted 20 February 2015 Posted 20 February 2015 I dread to imagine how smug Peiterson looks this morning!
Bobby Hundreds Posted 20 February 2015 Posted 20 February 2015 Good for Cook not being anywhere near this debacle.
Crinklyfox Posted 20 February 2015 Posted 20 February 2015 I've seen some horror shows from England over the years and this is right up there with them. To be fair Southee was excellent but it begs the question, if he can get swing why couldn't Anderson? Southee was still getting swing twenty overs in and was just too good for the England batsmen. Brendon McCullum is a mighty player but we fed him. We only have to lash up against one of the minor sides now to make the bad experience complete.
Corky Posted 20 February 2015 Posted 20 February 2015 Anyone else concerned we might not make it through? We should beat Afghanistan and Scotland, Bangladesh will be the crucial game unless we drastically improve against Sri Lanka.
Lionator Posted 20 February 2015 Posted 20 February 2015 Anyone else concerned we might not make it through? We should beat Afghanistan and Scotland, Bangladesh will be the crucial game unless we drastically improve against Sri Lanka. Saw Mortaza bowl for Bangladesh and if he stays fit, our batsmen will struggle.
ballso Posted 20 February 2015 Posted 20 February 2015 i was there today - embarrassing to put it mildly. men versus boys! still, at least the barmy army was in full voice - the atmosphere was great. work on monday isn't going to be nice!
m4DD0gg Posted 20 February 2015 Posted 20 February 2015 Got to be asked witch Captain Morgan is worse Eoin or our very own Calamity!
Guest MattP Posted 20 February 2015 Posted 20 February 2015 Three changes for me next up, Hales, Bopara and Tredwell in for Ali, Ballance and Finn. Hales Bell Taylor Root Morgan Bopara Buttler Woakes Tredwell Broad Anderson
surrifox Posted 20 February 2015 Posted 20 February 2015 Three changes for me next up, Hales, Bopara and Tredwell in for Ali, Ballance and Finn. Hales Bell Taylor Root Morgan Bopara Buttler Woakes Tredwell Broad Anderson Anderson's done well to keep his place - great bowler but never much of a force in the 50 over game and next to useless so far
Corky Posted 20 February 2015 Posted 20 February 2015 Moores is not a great coach at this level, typically we go back to him after a brilliant era under Flower. Cook is thrown out for not scoring runs and his replacement scores even fewer. We have Taylor at three scoring heavy runs so move him to 6. We are missing a Collingwood, someone who scores runs in the middle order and take up an end with the ball. Woakes is improving but Broad is all over the place, contributing next to nothing with the bat, 7 wickets in 7 matches this year whilst going at 6 an over. Finn will be dropped.
