Group B - Pakistan, England, Netherlands

[popepouri]

Oh ****, it's raining again.

 

[superkingdave]

Look, England are dross, but I'd just like to say how well the Dutch are playing, they've shown up our lacklustre batting, now the bowling is being put under pressure, and it's cracking.

Yep they are batting superbly

 

[Burgey]

If England lose this they can supplant Roebuck's "A" team from c1989 that toured The Netherlands and lost.

That would be grand.

 

[kingkallis]

Its raining hard? Anyone from UK?

2 more....woow 2s will be really valuable for them!

 

[King Pietersen]

They're batting well, but the bowling's been pretty poor, and Collingwood's still bloody bowling. Get a wicket ffs, get Broad or Anderson on. Such a rubbish captain.

Now a missed run out, this is all going to pot.

 

[Neil Pickup]

You know what I'm gonna do? Blame these commentators for being useless. "10 out of 10..." NO. Then we would have got him out.

Dead right on Anderson or Broad though.

 

[kingkallis]

Ohh Bopara!

Under pressure!

 

[pasag]

This is possibly the greatest thing ever.

 

[superkingdave]

Showing us how to hit the ball tbh.

 

[kingkallis]

Really intelligent cricket this by the Dutches!

 

[Burgey]

Wow. That's a ****ing massive bomb!

 

[cricman]

How come Dimitri Mascheranas didn't play?

De Groth Misses out on his 50

 

[kingkallis]

Leading edge - well played de Grooth!

Comon RTD - do it

 

[superkingdave]

Dutch just need to be calm now, no need to panic with that wicket, RTD should see them home

 

[grecian]

Thank **** for that choke, we really didn't deserve that, but it's all set for RTD...

 

[Chubb]

This game is over, its done, its finished- even if de Grooth is out. He shouldn't have done that, still, they should win it. ten Doeschaete just needs to tell himself he's been in bigger holes for Essex and won matches.

 

[King Pietersen]

Colly picks up a flukey wicket. Superb innings from De Groot, some massive shots in that. We need to keep taking wickets. Why on earth is Broad bowling round the wicket?

 

[popepouri]

Borren is still smashing the **** out of the ball.

 

[Burgey]

Bugger!! Great knock though.

 

[atisha_ro]

Them Dutch are good.

And in related stories, the Dutch team have beaten the Dominican Republic during the World Baseball Classic. Twice, actually.

And now this.
