|
|
By:
don't want to give our fastest bowler the ball when it's nice and hard do we alistair.
let him bowl on this pudding with a nice soft ball so he wont get selected again. just like you did in the test here last year. |
|
By:
that's right, let tredwell have a go first.
maybe you could bowl root from the other end as well. |
|
By:
are you watching DStyle? any hope for England?
|
|
By:
No hope at all. England can't play spin and scored 80 runs too few.

By:

By:
Clown Captain Cook
|
|
By:
bowling your sixth bowler, a second rate spinner, to indian batsman when the only way to win is to take 7 wickets.
it's beyond a joke. |
|
By:
india take powerplay now ffs
|
|
By:
no need lad and rather have the fielder out
|
|
By:
If we can't get rid of Cook he must bat further down the order.
In many ways he's a perfect number 4/5 consolidating in the middle overs nurdling the spinners about at 4 to 5 an over. Stokes has to go, and be replaced with either ravi or ali. Happily ditch one of Bell or Root and go with Vince/Taylor. |
|
By:
England really have to wake up. Cook is just not fit for the job. He puts Hales under silly amounts of pressure. The need for an explosive start will be even greater in Australia. Open with Lumb. Bring Taylor into the middle order for Root and play Ali instead of Tredwell. Replace Stokes with Luke Wright or Ravi Bop.

|
By:
ballance must wonder what he's done wrong not to get a game. got an exceptional 1 day record for yorkshire
|
|
By:
I think you've got to stick with Root but get rid of Bell now and replace with Taylor.

"The gameplan is okay, I believe. I thought we got off to a really good start again. Everyone keeps talking about more power at the top. But we were 50-odd off ten the other day, 50 off nine here: we're getting good starts."
whilst it was remarked that chris tavare was seen sagely nodding at cook's shrewd words, others who have happened to watch the occasional match being played outside of england in the last decade, were a little concerned by the england captain's assessment of what constituted a good start in the modern game. |
