It's Just Not Cricket!

[Donkey Toon]

Sorry for posting non-football related article but for those trying to follow England in cricket world cup England are having a nightmare in the field. Rubbish bowling, misfields and dropped catches all over the place. Holland scored 292-6.

Not sure how good the Dutch bowling attack is but England could be heading for a defeat here if they aren't careful.

Would be a tad embarrassing!

an England sports team heading for an embarrassing defeat never heard that before

 

[Darth Gogledd]

I wouldn't be too worried.

After all, Holland are undeniably the strongest team in the world today. So good, in fact, that nobody will play a test match against them...

Thank Christ that Scotland aren't playing...

 

[Gutierrez's Right Boot]

Hopefully in the interval the dutch will have a few dodgy cigs and engage in manlove and be to tired and stoned to come out

"England have been like a club third XI on a Sunday afternoon. Some of the spectators are laughing - goodness knows what India are making of this."

That pretty much sums it all up, absolutely disgraceful.

Absolutely sums it up. I've been watching on the telly and it hasn't been happy viewing.

I'm watching it too, decent start buts its still a big total to get.

Cricket tip: If we lose we just put our fingers in our ears and shout Ashes. Our victory in Oz gave us that right

Yeah that's a big chase. Hoping our batting lineup will be up to it though, quite a few of the lesser nations seem capable of putting on a score, its defending it they seem to have problems with.

Nice one centurion! I'll go along with that

 

[Alfie]

If they keep this run rate up they'll be fine as long as Stauss & KP can get a ton each

What do the Dutch caps look like?

What do the Dutch caps look like?

Orange with a blue logo and a blue stripe. Blue trim on the shade bit as well.

Strauss is looking good so hopefully he will get a big score!

 

[Hatem Is A Geordie]

Strauss looking good! Hopefully won't be as embarrassing as the t20 where we lost to them...

 

[Shola's Scissor Kick]

England were appalling in the field, however I'm fairly confident in what is a very strong batting line-up on a very good batting pitch.
