    Someone had to start one, sorry.

    England - depressingly dissapointing.

    Not entirely unexpected. Well, I'm a total pessimist when it comes to England cricket so any good result is a bonus.

    A captain who can't score a run and a successful no 3 demoted to no 6 and an off spinner who almost always proves the most economical bowler left out suggests some muddled thinking at the top.

    If I am being honest I don't really want India to win it - but mainly because their obsession with the short game is not great for the test scene.

    The league stages are unimportant. The top teams just have to avoid losing to the minnows.

    Why wasn't Bopara playing, he can be an annoying bowler and batter usually? Surely he did not make way for Ballance?
