I will rephrase that... I have been disappointed by a lot of bowlers.... particularly players such as Bresnan and ok.

I agree about Bresnan, Finn ranked 2nd/3rd in world for a reason.

Leroy Ambrose

Oh well. Just get it back on and it's raining. Stupid fucking weather in this country.

cafcfan1990

thats that surely? Shared trophy

Leroy Ambrose

Looks like it. Can't see there being enough breaks from here on in to get another 35 overs - forecast is the same for the next few hours. Yet another year without a summer.

Bedsaddick

It's a joke how long the umpires and ground staff take to get the game restarted.

Ok has disappointed me as well. I've never seen him bowl well.

ok is just average

Absurdistan

130 to win

randy andy

Well bresnan was the standout bowler, unfortunately for all the wrong reasons.

But a very gettable total, just need to make a decent start.

SELR_addicks

Why all the pessimism early? England always manage to pull it out of the bag.

McBobbin

we dont have our twenty20 batters, and i think starting with cook/bell/trott might be a mistake. Maybe Bopara to open and break the total back? or Morgan (although he has been poor this series?) Cook is actually a decent 20 over player

Covered End

Oh dear.

superchrissypowell

Doesnt look easy to score out there...going to be very tight

Covered End

Trott has come good.

12-1 2.3 overs. Cook out.

McBobbin

Go Trott! Scrub what I said. Reckon with a fair wind we have a chance. Jadeja is a danger man for India

Covered End

28-2 5.2 overs Trott stumped :-(.

I knew that would happen, should've kept my mouth shut.

Absurdistan

Don't panic

Covered End

Panic on the streets of London
Panic on the streets of Birmingham.

Leroy Ambrose

I wonder to myself...

Covered End

40-3 7.4 overs

Root gone. Panic !

Absurdistan

Don't panic

Leroy Ambrose

No. Panic is the correct emotion.

Leroy Ambrose

Be nice of Dhoni to bring that lanky twat Sharma on for a long spell.

Leroy Ambrose

Think that's ok - benefit of the doubt should go to the batsman

Leroy Ambrose

Fuck that. that's a bollocks decision.

Clem_Snide

Utterly bent decision. How on earth can you give that out on the evidence we just watched. Total bollocks.
