The UAE have crawled to 111-8 off their 20 overs, having been 91-2, against a decent Dutch bowling attack containing the likes of Klaassen (Kent), van Meekeren (Gloucs) and van der Merwe (Somerset). Their final 5 overs produced 26-6.
This is some of the worst pro cricket I've ever watched. If Namibia loses to either of these two...I don't know
That dropped catch by the skipper when fella would have got his third wicket in the over Unreal and the ball was fumbled every other piece of fielding or even more in the last few overs that I watched
England's first three bowlers today has to be some sort of "spoof" for what will happen come the first game - Stokes/Curran/Jordan have gone for 36 in total
Jordan has bowled himself out of the World Cup reckoning. Good to see Livingstone playing though.
A player that even at Sussex I never really got the hype, capable of some outstanding fielding moments but an absolute liability with the ball.
said as much in the cricket thread - his fielding has kept him in the team for longer than he maybe otherwise would have. It was put to me, however, that we don't have a decent death bowling alternative - which is a fair point.
Matthew Hayden looks like he's spent most of his time since retiring, eating.
he was always an absolute unit. I remember him squaring up to simon jones (not the smallest bloke in the england team) and made him look like a dweeby dwarf.

They have enough on their plate.
