We don't want to write anything. Everything's been said. For example:
"There's a sense of inevitability about England one-day losses at the moment. You don't know quite how they're going to lose, but they will. They might get themselves in a good position and lose. They might let the game get away from them early on. They'll definitely lose though."
That's a quote of our ourself from June the 19th.
Or how about this post, entitled 'England's one-day team - what's wrong' about England's batting letting them down in one-dayers in India. Read it. We could have republished it today, word for word. There's progress.
Ordinarily we at least try and acknowledge 'encouraging' aspects of England one-day performances: There were three England bowlers who each took two wickets today. We're not naming them, even though two are among our very favourite players.
Just one of those days....Yardy, Dalrymple need to be given some more time to sort themselves out. I like these two players.
ReplyDeleteStrauss just looked out of sorts out there on the pitch.
Why arn't Cook and Shah in the squad?
