Dr Gloom 19886 Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 Root can play any situation in all forms of the game. We're running out of superlatives Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1117 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Apart from the situation where Stokes leaves him stranded and run out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronic the Drug Wasp 6 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 I'd give Morgan the bullet after this no matter what happens. I can't think of a single legitimate reason to bat first here and his batting has been unconvincing for ages now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1117 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 It was certainly terrible today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1117 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 It's also looking very much like we should have been braver and played the three spinners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronic the Drug Wasp 6 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Not sure if that's just how it looks due to our inability to bat against spin. We'll see how Rashid and Ali go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1117 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Possibly but they were clearly talking about playing the third spinner so it was always a consideration. Fantastic from Moeen in the circimstances there. Good back up from Willey too. I've never understood why we leave Willey so late in the order. I'd have him ahead of Jordan and Rashid every time.

Dr Gloom 19886 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 good recovery from where we were - it was 65-6 at one point. it's still going to be a difficult total to defend, even against afghanistan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1117 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Well we didn't come out of that game with a great deal of credit but a win's a win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 30598 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Typical England to go from the 2nd highest successful T20 run chase to a performance like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 19886 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 yeah, would have been even more typical for them to have lost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooj 17 Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 The Afghanistan story might be the best chance of putting pressure on the ICC to stop restricting access to the top level of the game for so called lesser nations. It needs to be played on as much as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aimaad22 3509 Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Absolutely. What a horrid idea to cut out the associate nations. Its like they dont want the game to grow at all. Bigger mess than FIFA sometimes, the ICC is. Mostly got to do with the bigger countries' boards demanding more share of the money Im sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aimaad22 3509 Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Nope. I take it's worth the watch? What a superb innings from Kohli that. Controlled from start to finish. Cant remember anyone as good in the chase as this guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1117 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Have you watched Death of a Gentleman Aimaad?I watched that the other night. Shocking what the big three are doing really. Great display from England yesterday, think I'm hoping for a West Indies win today. Gayle is terrifying when he's on his game but I think India at home are a much tougher prospect overall.

David Kelly 1117 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Gayle gone early and 190+ to chase. Think we'll be playing India on Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Kelly 1117 Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 I'm fucking brilliant at predicting Cricket results like. Particularly India! Excellent chase by West Indies mind. Helped by those no balls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aimaad22 3509 Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 Aye 2 chances for Simmons. It was a pretty flat track but chasing 200 down in a semi against home support in so easy task. Top effort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1117 Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 Mind you how Kohli wasn't run out is anyones guess. Should be a cracking game on Sunday. The two teams who have hit the most sixes and possibly two very similar teams. We both give the oposition a chance but we can both blast a massive score. Safe to say I'll be fucking off super sunday for it. No doubt it will be a low scorer now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
