The Cricket Thread 2014

[pooligan]

To lose by 45 runs to the Netherlands just sums this present England team up .Pathetic !!!

[PaulWinch again]

David Lloyd is about as angry as me, English cricket has genuinely fallen apart this winter.

[PaulWinch again]

Broad isn't defending it at least.

[PaulWinch again]

English cricket is in real trouble, and I'm not really sure what to do. Our fielding has been fucking terrible for 6 months, most of the bowling shambolic and other than a couple of innings the batting has been fucking terrible.

[Villan For Life]

To go 64 balls without scoring a boundary is a startling stat. That's more than half of a full T20 innings. We are dire.

[PaulWinch again]

All the pundits are furious.

[PGW]

I have deliberately waited before i offered my views on this debacle as i wanted to give a constructive, well thought opinions, well i have now recovered and will put my views into print!

FOR FUCK'S SAKE THIS IS SIMPLY NOT FUCKIN GOOD ENOUGH YOU SPINELESS BUNCH OF TOSSERS, FOR FUCK'S SAKE DEFEAT TO FUCKIN NETHERLANDS NOT ONCE BUT FUCKIN TWICE.
IT'S A FUCKIN DISGRACE.
FIELDING - DISGRACEFUL, BOWLING - DISGRACEFUL, BATTING - ESPESCIALLY IN THIS GAME DISGRACEFUL!!!
TALK ABOUT A WINTER OF DISCONTENT!!!!

I heard the Bangladeshi anthem yesterday. It sounded like the soundtrack from the neighbourhood Curry house.

I wonder how the ecb will blame this on KP...

His mate Piers has been spreading discontent via twitter into the dressing room.

I wonder how the ecb will blame this on KP...

In spite of the joke it's a reasonable point, the way the ECB dealt with the Ashes debacle suggested that it was pretty much solely KP's fault. They're going to struggle to blame the lack of spirit and desire on him now.

Fuck off Giles you company man.

Wasn't Giles out there at the crease

[Simon Ward]

Joke of a team at the moment.
