    **Official** Sri Lanka in England / Scotland - 2011

    What an utterly shambolic batting performance by England. They look a bit like schoolboys. It all fell apart after KP got out with another sh** shot.

    If it says that on the team sheet then that's what happens. Woe betide anyone who thinks on his feet.

    Another one bites the dust. Wright gone.

    I doubt England will manage even 150 runs.

    **Official** Sri Lanka in England / Scotland - 2011

    WTF is going on - backing away about 3 feet wide of leg is NOT a good idea Ravi! Go back to County Cricket and don't bother the England team again.

    Just back of a length looks to be the right length. Difficult to get away off the sluggish pitch. The slinger comes on. EDIT: Or bowl 90mph very full and yorker deliveries - that works too.

    Oh dear, Kieswetter gives his wicket away now.

    **Official** Sri Lanka in England / Scotland - 2011

    I simply cannot understand the logic of dropping a player who is in a rich vein of form and choosing someone who can't hit the ball off the square at the moment. Bell is a much better batsman than Bopara is and probably will ever be. Stupid, nonsensical decision. :no: :no: :no:

    They can't be serious about Bopara, he's just got out for 1 from 7 balls in Essex's T20 against Glamorgan. Looked completely out of form and couldn't cope with the accurate bowling of Wagg. Are the selectors actually looking at the form players or just picking those they always have?

    Just seen a much improved weather forecast for tomorrow. Rain may not arrive until 2-3pm so they should get at least one full session in before the rain arrives. Overcast conditions too which will help the swing bowlers. Fingers crossed.

    They do have 4 dedicated sports channels and the ability to show additional events on the red button though. Shows how much SKY actually thinks of cricket and how much that crap game with a round inflated ball dominates everything else in this country though. :no:

    Agreed, he is still bowling too short. I don't understand why he can't or won't pitch it up a bit. EDIT: But not to half voley length. Good length is called good for a reason.

    English Domestic Season 2011

    I'd just be happy for Hampshire to start winning games which aren't T20 games. They don't seem capable this season for some reason. Still, retaining the T20 crown will be some conpensation, just so long as they don't drop out of County Div 1.

    Too short again. EDIT: and Jimmy can't find the stumps. EDIT ": Nothing wrong with Tremlett's accuracy though!

    The SL fielding is deteriorating fast. From bad to worse to rubbish.
