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

    Don't forget these two have a monstrous combined total of 16 test wickets between them! I'm not so sure why England were sent in....

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

    I can see your point about Freddy. He's been in and out so many times, that England were always looking for a stand-in / replacement #6. Since his retirement, the idée fixe of needing an all-rounder has vanquished. However, I do not think that was the main part. Not the decision to use 4...

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

    Since cricket news is not in any regular Dutch news site, nor cricket talk is part of Dutch office, school or pub life, this amazing win just came to my attention...... And I did check the score about half an hour before play finally commenced on day 5. I figured it was as dead as my great...

    Imagine Barath, Gayle, JT, Fidel & Dwayne Bravo all fit and available....., and Windies suddenly have a luxuary selection issue. Would be awesome!

    *Official* Indian Premier League 2011

    Why bring on your 6th bowler in the 18th over? I can see Sreesanth and RP Sing were expensive, but this doesn't make sense, does it?

    Indeed! It's just what T20 is. Sometimes, perhaps often, a very good ball can actually be smashed out of the park.

    English Domestic Season 2011

    I was just checking some scores. And, to my surprise, I saw a Hampshire bowler named Simon Philip Jones. That is great news. I thought he was out forever! Is there any chance he can get back to his 2005 Ashes level? He is 32 now. Should be possible!

    *Official* Quarter Final 4 - Sri Lanka v England

    There it is! Trott's 2nd boundary of the day!

    *Official* Quarter Final 4 - Sri Lanka v England

    That wide was not just a bit high, but also miles outside leg, not? So justly called a wide, I guess...

    Must be said: the last drop was a tough chance.

    If I were England, I'ld take the powerplay now!

    *Official* Quarter Final 4 - Sri Lanka v England

    Ah, that ball! He seemed tot stop his swing there, halfway. I've tried that myself a few times. All resulted in simple catches....

    *Official* Quarter Final 4 - Sri Lanka v England

    Good point! And on his 65th ball, he scored his first boundary, albeit accidenta! I must say: so far a very good and very sensible innings!

    *Official* Quarter Final 4 - Sri Lanka v England

    Maybe Bopara getting out is a blessing in disguise for England? Morgan seems the be the sort of player to get England to a decent total.
  20. Stapel

    *Official* Quarter Final 4 - Sri Lanka v England

    When they referred, I thought he must have an edge on it! Why else would you refer that??? OTOH, Bopara consulted Trott. Not something you do if you got some bat on it? Mystery referral....
