Rodders Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Moeen was dumb. Doesn't stop other people being dumb either. This is **** pathetic by England. World Cup favourites my **** arse. Win all the bilateral series you like but choke in the big event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 They have just bowled so much better than us in easier batting conditions. Archer crap, wood crap, woakes average Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its too easy a fallback option for England to just go out and slash at the ball, get out for less than 150 runs but then say ah well it’s just the way we play, we put 400 odd on the windies.....you still have to dig in when the situation calls for it, it’s cowardly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVFCDAN Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Some slight overreactions on the BBC live text https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/live/cricket/47483182 PeterFeet: another awful choice of shot for the situation. Bayliss and Morgan should be ashamed and go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFCDAN Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Moeen goes for 6. The same man that opened the batting in the last world cup once again contributes absolutely nothing with the bat, shocking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Never really expected him too. Difference between the sides is Starc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodders Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Absolute **** garbage. What a bunch of choking jokers. 3 defeats in the group stages doesn't deserve a semi final berth let alone contender tags. We'll still spawn our way in through the other sides probably not doing enough. But if we don't go through I think that will end a few careers in the ODI format at least. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Fantastic in meaningless games but means nothing if you are shit when it matters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 India at Edgbaston will not be easy particularly as it will feel like an away game. New Zealand tough to call. Think we will limp out. Bowling not good enough. I think mooed needs to go back to Worcester to learn how to bar again. Wouldn’t pick him again. Wait fir the tests. Stokes looks injured. Archer not 100%, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Reminds me of 2006 football World Cup. The way some of the media reacted pre tournament that England just had to turn up Some suggestions was England be racking up 400 every game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s ok scoring 400 plus on Odin international on fiat tracks but when it matters the top players like starc turn up. I think we have some great players like root and stokes but buttler is a let down when it really matters. Notice trott was there today. That’s a player that could have got us home. One partnership with stokes would have been enough Edited June 25, 2019 by PaulC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonyh29 Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 so with Pakistan winning yesterday by my reckoning we need to win both or we are out ... unless by some fortune Pakistan implode and lose to either Bangladesh or Afghanistan still a Pakistan v India final could be interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulC Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 (edited) Think we will struggle to beat India. There front-line bowling attack looks exceptional. Prob better off playing on a turning track. Our two spinners match up to there’s quite well, I know I said drop moeen but with the weather expected to be very hot he has to play. Has a good record against India Edited June 27, 2019 by PaulC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
