International Twenty20 Series: India v England 20/12/12

[vegster]

Nearly forgot this due to a bad hangover, Just checked the scores and we have had a good knock from Lukey, a total of 157 off the 20 overs.

Trouble is, we don't seem to be taking it seriously as we have put out a rubbish team.

Rubbish team how?

Because of the T20 specialists in there in place of the better known Test stars? People like Hales and Buttler, who are responsible for England posting anything like a decent score.

I agree with you Hans but even before his poor innings today I really don't see what Lumb's doing in the team. We have a lot of promising young batsmen and a few can open. He did ok in the 20/20 three years ago but bugger all since and clearly isn't the future

 

[hans kraay fan club]

No arguments there. Hales and Wright should open - as they pretty much did anyway.

 

[Simster]

Buttler's cameo was splendid entertainment and has made it a competitive score to chase. 157/6 I think wasn't it?

 

[Bold Seagull]

4 wides after 1.1 overs....good start with the ball!





....start the car

 

[keaton]

I'm not it's that competitive with this bowling
32/0 2.3 overs

 

[Marxo]

Dernbach is having a 'mare!

We have a very poor looking bowling attack for starters, the Indians bat much deeper than us and I can't see them being troubled making 158.

The batting line up is flimsy as too many of the Test squad have been allowed back home for crimbo. we should have kept Trott, Swann and KP but, I accept they deserve a bit of a rest. Remember, KP has no problem with the demands of the IPL so why can't he turn out for the crest he has had tattooed on his arm and maybe up his value for the next auction ?

 

[CHAPPERS]

There is absolutely no reason for Lumb to be in that side. Bresnan is not a good enough bat to come in at 7 either and don't get me started on Tredwell at 8. Far too thin in the batting.

 

[BRIGHT ON Q]

Always remember Murray Goodwin absolutely annihilate Stuart Meaker when he got 100 vs Surrey in T 20 at Hove.

 

[Marxo]

What was it that catches win?

 

[HAILSHAM SEAGULL]

Comedy fielding from Meaker, even Monty might of held that one

 

[Marxo]

Good, Patel.

 

[Bold Seagull]

Well Meaker will be relieved, 2 balls later he's caught again, decent catch by Patel, pleased for Bres!

 

[Pevenseagull]

nice little bonus for a shitty rainy afternoon.

 

[Simster]

I hate Yuvraj Singh. I hope we get the little tosser out soon.

 

[Simster]

Unless we can do what India diid, and take 3 wickets in 3 overs for about 10 runs, WERE LOOSE.

93/3. Yuvraj OUT. I'm claiming that.

Nice wicket Simster, Meaker holds one, I think you can claim that one!




edit: ha ha I see you have already claimed it!!
