Utterly dismal shit. So far off the pace of a half decent team, never mind a world cup winning one

Difficult to argue with that assessment. That our last wicket pair were our two highest scorers says it all. I don’t understand why Butler put them in, stupid decision, did he learn nothing from the Afghanistan game? A great batting track, get first use of it, put a big score in the bank and make them chase it down. And despite England’s opinion of themselves as a top chasing team, their recent record is piss poor. Really can’t see us qualifying now looking at the games to come.

Skye Being: By my reckoning, if Netherlands score less than about 250, England will go above them in the table (on net run rate), which means they’ll have climbed two places in two days. Basically they’re doing better by not playing.

Bairstow should have been out first ball. Hit pad first then bat. No review by Lankies.

Another fuck up by Bairstow 68-3.

Lucky we strengthened the batting. Buttler gone. 77-4 in the 15th.

Livingstone gone LBW - this looks like a disaster

Woeful.

122-6 its bad

I remember way back when we were good at this game. :roll_eyes:

156 a.o.

33.2 overs.

And still 3 more nightmares to come

Comprehensively walloped by 8 wickets. Pathetic display.
