Trott is the man of the winter as far as English cricket is concerned. Did everything he was asked to do and didn't make a fuss about it.

As I said Sri Lanka's batting is not very good.......  when faced with a world class attack.

Trott is currently the leading run scorer in the World Cup, how anyone can criticise his performance is beyond me.

Just got back and seen some highlights of England's game, all I hope is that we have learned from this winter and the amount of cricket we have played.

Willis is always unduly critical of Trott.

He's never met a nice South African...

Normally the front page of ESPN.com (main US site) has a photo of an NFL/NBA/MLB or college player.

Today it has this..........................



Could cricket be starting to make an impact stateside ?

India have come out of trap very well this morning. They look as though the pressure is not affecting them.

Fantastic ton from Jayawardena. Hopefully Sachin will repeat it in the India innings.

Great hitting at the end and a good total.

All set up for the Indian superstars with a Billion watching to chase down - that's some pressure.

This could be very close, that six off the last ball could be vital.
