Bit worried about this upcoming cricket season with all the rain we have had. Clubs round here worried we wont be able to play until June at this rate

I bet Worcester is under water, as it generally is.

England started pretty well. Pakistan 2 down already.

Not been great here any thing more than 150 will be hard to get! One good thing the boundaries are not to long

Do it again!

Englands catching has been good in this tournament

 

[waspish]

Going to be chasing around 170/180 here we will have to bat very well to get that!
Don’t know if it’s the ground but the fumbling miss fielding been a lot!

 

[waspish]

Unless we keep getting wickets then could be 160/170

Couldn’t see a separate thread for it but the fucking racism of 100 teams with high Indian ownership of 100 teams not allowing Pakistani players in their teams is an abhorrent racist disgrace. I couldn’t give a fuck about the 100, I think it’s an abomination of a tournament but to have racism being used in cricket selection in our country should not be allowed. In broad terms I see Indian owners and franchises being to cricket in the country what American owners are in football - unwanted and unethical in their designs.

Bowled well, fielded poorly on the ground but took some good catches, I think we'll chase this down

 

[waspish]

Good start

Time to fuck off Salt. Are these 2 still the numbers 1 & 2 in the world t20 rankings? On paper

 

[jimharri]

Good start!

 

[waspish]

Pakistan will get more from this wicket I said 150 would be difficult we need 165!

 

[waspish]

Buttler been shite if we get through maybe he will come good at moment he can’t get a run!

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Right then. Buttler out, Crawley in.

 

[gazinho]

How bad has he got to be to get Duckett in
