Savage Henry Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 UAE not exactly doing much to counter the argument that the World Cup should be reduced in size, as they are currently 67/8. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjw Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 I left work at six and definitely didn't expect the Aus-NZ game finishing like that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Skidmarks Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 England are 89/2 after 17 overs. Sangakara is my favourite 1 day batman, I cn see him hitting Woakes all over the ground. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 England lose by 9 wickets 139 for Thirimane and 117 for Sangakarra, and Morgan has thrown the bowlers under the bus in his post match interview. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorlomin Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 (edited) England have taken 22 wickets in 4 matches, 10 of those against Scotland. Broad and Anderson is finished at this level. Finn, well we all know when Finn went wrong. (edited it was 9 against Australia 2 against NZ 10 against Scotland and 1 against SL) Edited March 1, 2015 by dorlomin 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finn, well we all know when Finn went wrong. They gave out the most damning stat about Finn on 5 live with Vaughan and Tuffers on Monday night. When he first entered the England set up he was averaging just under 145kph, but was prone to the odd no ball as he would clip the stumps at the bowler's end as he tried to bowl wicket to wicket. In fucking about with his technique they've stopped the no balls but at this World Cup he is struggling to go above 130kph regularly.If the evidence of the winter so far is anything to go by, it's going to a very long summer for England. Cook must be sitting at home pishing himself. Edited March 1, 2015 by peasy23 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FuzzyBear Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Buttler is coming in far too late as you say. Bopara is carrying the drinks where he belongs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Half Rice Half Chips Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Lol.. To have any hope of beating South Africa, you really have to get de Kock out early. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Just watching the highlights of the England match, and they got off to a great start but as soon as Moeen Ali went they just ground to a halt. They've been rightly getting a doing by the pundits. Ballance has been a disaster at 3, and although Morgan is right that the bowlers are putting in too many loose deliveries, slaughtering them in the press conference might not be the best idea. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Psychosis Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 "I thought our score was about 25 over par" Morgan is either an idiot or he thinks the public are. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno i'd rather have him than some of the dullards in that line up. Hales aswell. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 (edited) Ireland getting a pasting from South Africa. The Saffers batted first and scored 412-4, the Irish are currently 48-5 and need to reach 122 to avoid the heaviest ever ODI defeat. Worryingly for them Tahir hasn't even bowled a ball yet.

peasy23 Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Still a heavy defeat, but the Irish managed to reach the 45th over and scored 210 all out. Helps their net run rate a bit compared to how it looked earlier on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Skidmarks Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Ballance is a good test No3. He is perfect to build an innings after an openers has got out, similar to how Trott was. Unlike Trott though, he can't switch between disciplines and up his tempo. The real problem is the selection. Stokes should have been selected as a proper all rounder, batting at 4 or 5, Morgan is hideously out of form and should have been dropped with Bell at 3 and Hales opening with Ali, Woakes is county level and should have been replaced with Harry Gurney. All my opinion obviously but with the shadow of Pietersen hovering over this World Cup, I can see Moores going before the Ashes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topcat(The most tip top) Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Is there anything AB De Villiers can't do? He can't fart the welsh national anthem in B minor. He struggles with the top notes. That's why he generally performs it in A 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
