FFS 56 for 10 wickets. We were favourites at one point

Silverwood needs to make sure his cv is up to date.

Sums up this whole series really doesn't it?

tisza · Jan 16, 2022

embarrassing end to a humiliating series.
Problem is it's still mainly a side that could do well in English conditions and so summer success could paper over the cracks.
So many things need putting in place to make long-term changes - red ball calendar, county championship wickets, making sure International players are getting some red ball cricket between Test series, psychology and maybe captaincy (though not sure what the alternatives are).

Well what a fucking embarrassing tour that was...utterly fucking useless

Well I’d leave out the last few months work if I was him

Sky_Blue_Dreamer · Jan 16, 2022

Thank fuck that's over.

England's best player was the weather in the fourth test letting us avoid a whitewash.

eastwoodsdustman · Jan 16, 2022

I can’t believe that I actually thought my £20 at 4/1 was a good bet before it started.

England will come back pick up the dukes ball and they will start winning, I think the summer will be the retirement of Anderson and maybe Broad.

Don't think NZ will mind the conditions. SA who knows what side turns up.

Busy humiliating ourselves at the 'good' format now

The focusing everything on white ball cricket really looks to be paying off.

Remember when The Hundred was at fault?

Englands performance in 120 ball cricket has gone rapidly downhill since the introduction of 100 ball cricket

Brighton Sky Blue · Jan 22, 2022

Need to reduce it to 'The One', and get Paddy McGuinness to umpire

tisza · Jan 24, 2022

some garbage bowling at the end of that T20.

tisza · Jan 24, 2022

Highlighting the red ball batting situation.
Joe Root (today ICC cricketer of the year albeit a COVID year) 1708 runs. av 61
Next best Burns with 530 runs av 28
Then Bairstow 391 runs av25

Just watched under 19s ( sad maybe nothing else to watch) very good low scoring game Afghanistan beat Sri Lanka by 4 runs.

chiefdave · Jan 27, 2022

Been some great games. England in the semis next Tuesday, 1pm start.

Sky have been putting all the games up on YouTube live except the England games sadly. Can't imagine there's a huge number of people taking out subscriptions to watch England U19s.

thekidfromstrettoncamp · Jan 27, 2022

I'll watch any competitive sport especially enjoy the underdogs coming out on top.

Bethell’s innings against South Africa was a bit special that lad is a massive talent.

We "spotted" him last year for the Bears
Think it is so important for the counties to carry on the trend of blooding young players in this season's domestic cricket. ECB should consider a bonus scheme for counties playing young English-qualified players - like the Football League did a few years back

tisza · Jan 30, 2022

Fair play to the women's side. Gave it a real go.

chiefdave · Jan 30, 2022

That last over pretty much sums up the winter.

chiefdave · Feb 1, 2022

Heading for an exciting finish in the U19s World Cup semi. Afghanistan need 43 from the last 4 overs left. 4 wickets left. Fingers crossed England make it to the final.

tisza · Feb 2, 2022

Enjoyed the U19 game. Thought they had blown it.
Maybe most impressive thing was the captain giving the leggy the 2nd to last over when it looked like the game could be getting away again. Took some guts and it paid off big time.
Downside even at this level struggle against spin.

Warwickshire brought him over to England from Barbados when he was about 12 or 13 and sorted him a scholarship at Rugby school. Played a few games for my club and is still registered for us so hoping we get him for a couple of games this season. He is an unbelievable cricketer

Giles has been sacked, let’s hope it’s Silverwood next.

Otis · Feb 3, 2022

I'm watching the women's Ashes ODI and I'm not sure who the commentator is exactly, but how dumb is this comment.

So, Kate Cross runs in and clean bowls Meg Lanning and the commentator says "Oh, and she bowled her and I think Lanning may have to go there."

May have to go? I do like women's cricket, but some of the commentary is awful. There will be an absolute dolly of a catch, straight to the fielder and lobbed up in the air and they will say what an absolute fabulous catch etc.

WTF!

Terry Gibson's perm · Feb 3, 2022

Just watched a bit of the psl Afridi has bowled four overs 1-67

Terry Gibson's perm · Feb 3, 2022

Silverwood gone as well
