Warm up matches

There are so many bad warm up losses and few of them mean anything.

A couple of examples of bad but meaningless results are

England losing twice to near schoolboys in the space of a few day in 1994 2nd game here

Also this was a very embarassing result for SA.

Bit sore on Holland that that game wasn't a List-A OD game. It was a proper 11-a-sider, and they were playing in the C&G (or NatWest or whatever it was at that time) around then, so why aren't their games against touring teams worthy of the same status?

If I had to guess (and I may be wrong) it was probably played on an artificial surface (ie not on grass)
