Another pathetic effort from England.

 

[crooky]

Not much else to say really other than the World Cup for England is over, Let's hope big changes are ahead for the ODI team including management, coaching, captain, It has gone stale and smelly, it has become a Dad's Army of old men and brook,

We've always been a bit wank in India going by the 2011 World Cup (unsure before that) so I'm not gutted we're not going to win it. Our big chance to win a WC was in 2019 and we took it thankfully.

But this time around our performances have just been embarrassing even accounting for the India effect.

 

[waspish]

We win our last five games will we qualify?

 

[meeesh]

We win our last five games will we qualify?

This is on BBC hahahahah

The world champions can still qualify for the semi-finals but will likely have to win all five of their remaining group matches to guarantee doing so.

So in other words forget it

good shout

Maybe England could have gone to the World Cup in India with a young team with nothing to lose, But the way we have played with season-pro players and World Cup winners it's poor and ugly,

embarrassing

that's what I make of it, even in India you don't fold like a pack of cards

Don't know we could

Think it's is the last hoorar for quite a few those players in the 50 over game and I feel they turned up to India played a few games in that zapping heat thought fcuk this

With Australia and India amongst those still to play, it’s difficult to envisage us winning any of our remaining games.

Amended for you.
I only saw the Saffers batting and apart from Adel Rashid it was a shambles.
Very little variation on a great batting strip.
Something quite badly wrong there at the minute and what is worse is the lack of apparent talent in the wings.
Conditions are no shock to anyone and YJB,Buttler and even Root look shot along with a half fit Stokes.
Might beat Sri Lanka and the Dutch at a push.

Lord only knows what our ODI side will look like next summer.

It be a rebuild we will lose a few players I feel. Buttler will resign as captain will he give up on 50 over game though?
