Re: English cricket hits rock bottom again !
Bit of a find, TiVo has nicely recorded for me Zim v Pak 1 day international highlights, on Sony SAB. The PQ is terrible and aspect ratio all wrong and it's very one sided, but there if you want it ! Also noticed some Canadian 20/20 on Premier Sports the other day, but haven't quite got that desperate yet....

Think its a ploy to get the old duffers 'black balled', so they can have some new blood. Puts me further up the list anyway

Re: English cricket hits rock bottom again !
England’s shocking catching could end up costing them dearly. India should have been 100 for 7, two absolute sitters dropped in two balls.

They need to skittle 9 , 10 and 11 pretty quickly if they want a advantage here.

Re: English cricket hits rock bottom again !
What a shambles, Malan owes England 128 runs after dropping that dolly, I won’t hold my breath waiting to see that.

Poor captaincy also IMO from Root.

Re: English cricket hits rock bottom again !
Too many lefties in this England side and even though I am one myself I think we need a right handed opener at the very least.

Re: English cricket hits rock bottom again !
I was going to suggest a new thread or a change of thread title but after that inept display it is still the status quo.

Re: English cricket hits rock bottom again !
As if watching England wasn’t bad enough. Went to the T20 Blast at Old Trafford last night, Lancs v Leics. Lancashire managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. They were cruising having scored 190, Foxes miles behind the required rate when a member of the Taliban comes in and scores 86 of 32 deliveries.
TBH Nabi did strike the ball with awesome power.

Some of my family went to the Hampshire game and Kent made a low score of around 120 but it was no as calamitous as Hampshire's loss of wickets early as they lost 4 wickets with around just 20 runs on the board.
