32-4 this is serious now.

Not looking good for Ashley Giles' job prospects.

One of those times where I'm pretty glad I can't watch the game.  We really need a few overs from this pair now, if they can stay together for 6-7 overs the rate is still low enough that we don't need to do anything silly, we know we've got guys who can score at 10-11 an over in the last 5 so just work our way into range without losing more wickets and we'll still be fine, pretty embarrassing collapse but they did this to SA as well so they're no mugs.

Bresnan run out, terrible stuff. At the moment this is amateur.

They can't let Giles anywhere near the coaches job after the spineless performances that we've put in during one day and T20 games since the start of the year. His win ratio is shocking.

Ashley Giles has been taking inspiration from Tim Sherwood.

No boundaries in 60 balls (and we're not finished) is pretty damning.

They hold their catches those Dutch boys.

Well I think that should end any hopes Giles had, worst winter in history of English cricket. There aren't actually words to describe how bad that was. The closest I can get is shameful and pathetic. The new chief exec is already under massive pressure, we're an utter mess.
