Posted March 27, 201411 yr Pretty bloody amazing by Hales today, first ton for England in this format. Didn't look good at 0-2 chasing 190 after the first over but Hales and Morgan went mental! There is hope...
March 27, 201411 yr I enjoyed watching it today. Just a shame he is a red dog, saw 2 dcfc flags and a Derbyshire flag all next to each other. The Bexley Rams one was in the Caribbean as well.
March 31, 201411 yr No we're not, the new coach was on sky sports last night saying how much effort the lads had put in. Ashley Giles, GTFO!

March 31, 201411 yr England lost to Nederland's in WorldTwenty 20 all out for 88 I'll have to open my bottle of La Trappe Dubbel to celebrate that.
March 31, 201411 yr I'll have to open my bottle of La Trappe Dubbel to celebrate that.England cricket team are in danger of being a laughing stock . Cheers mines a pint of Tiger.
March 31, 201411 yr ECB Some heads need to roll it serves you right after the KP fiasco . No excuses you are a joke. If your face doesn't fit your out and that's no way to run English cricket. PS Giles is not the man
March 31, 201411 yr That's done for Giles. They'd have to be stupid to give him the job. Oh, wait... And isn't Collingwood supposed to be fielding coach? Hopefully, we'll not see him again either. Or Dernbach Or Bresnan Or lumb Or buttler Or Morgan

March 31, 201411 yr That's the way it's always been run. Ask basil d'oliveira. Talking of Dolly, what about all those dropped catches?
March 31, 201411 yr It's not just Twenty20 though it's the whole lot. Humiliated in Australia in Tests Twenty20 and 50 over stuff and now this. The ECB can't hide any more.
March 31, 201411 yr England cricket team are in danger of being a laughing stock . Cheers mines a pint of Tiger. La Trappe is Dutch. Have a Grolsch, not a Tiger.
March 31, 201411 yr It's not just Twenty20 though it's the whole lot. Humiliated in Australia in Tests Twenty20 and 50 over stuff and now this. The ECB can't hide any more. There is a policy of disengagement with the world. As long as the rest of the world plays at the IPL and England refuse, they will always be ****. I am sure the attitude of superiority still exists at the top of English cricket. They need to enter the 21st century and T concede that the world has something to offer England rather than the other way round. There is no reason for the English season to start when it does, except for the ECB to make some cash out of a May test series. Accept the IPL and let the players be a part of it.

Moot point but not sure its a superiority complex from English cricket. The English cricket-loving public generally prioritise test match cricket over one day matches & definitely over 20/20 cricket. The Indians (in particular) don't - that's fair enough. Different culture. We have football as our "high-octane" sport - they don't. That said, for us to lose to the Dutch is a disgrace. The only plus is that the predictably "safe" option of Giles as overall England coach has been made impossible - there would be uproar. Time for ECB to put their hands in their pockets for a big name with a proven record.
