I'm taping that. Don't spoil the ending for me.

 Gripping finish then ?

[cdbearsfan]

Call me a pessimist, but I reckon we're underdogs.

[PaulWinch again]

Pretty dire attempt to defend a target.

[beness]

Oh well, Homeward bound.

[PaulWinch again]

Below par with the bat, horrific deficiencies against spin. Absolutely awful with the ball. Players who played today who shouldn't be anywhere near England ODI team in future - Prior, Wright, Tredwell.

[cdbearsfan]

Well played Sri Lanka. Hope they win it now.

[beness]

Think NZ look good. But one of the home nations will win it methinks.

[cdbearsfan]

Doubt it. Can't see England, Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland prevailing now.

[Can Gana Be Bettered!?!?]

Seems like a waste of time beating West Indies now. Disappointing.

[PaulWinch again]

I see Bob Willis just said Trott's innings was match losing.

[Dave Cooper please]

I see Bob Willis just said Trott's innings was match losing.

Then he's talking bollocks.
Every team needs one player to anchor the innings allowing players at the other end to play shots, none of the other players stepped up to the plate. If Trott hadn't hung around we'd have been all out for 150.

I agree, it could have been quicker but without it we would have got nothing.

[cdbearsfan]

I think I would blame the bowlers who got zero wickets between them before I blamed the top run-scorer in the tournament. You can tell Willis was a bowler!

[dubont]

Willis is always unduly critical of Trott.
