Not so bad. Up early, got a lot to do today. England players are stealing a living.
Stopped for lunch (45 minutes) with NZ needing 12 runs.

[QUOTE=“Fitzy, post: 1094741, member: 236”]England hit 9 boundaries in their entire innings.
Steven Finn’s bowled 2 overs at an economy rate of 24.50
The stat’s in this match are going to be great craic to read.[/QUOTE]
They’ll be re-writing any number of statistics after this game;
England have lost four one-day internationals by 10 wickets and seven others by 9 wickets. The fewest overs to reach a target against England is 12.2 overs (Aus 118-0 at Sydney in 2003). The fewest overs to reach any target over 100 in any ODI is 12 by South Africa v Bangladesh at Potchefstroom in 2003.
The most expensive figures in ODIs with a minimum of two overs is 21.33 runs per over (3-0-64-0) by Ravi Rampaul WI v NZ at Queenstown 2014. So, Finn will beat that if he doesn’t bowl again.
- Andrew Samson (British Broadcasting Corporation Cricket Guru)I love this “NZ require 6 runs with 236 balls remaining”. 
If the ICC intend on only having 10 teams at the next world cup, then these cans of shite in the navy blue should be made qualify.
I’m aware they’re hosts.
Contador still eating fine Spanish beef by the looks of things.
How’s Ed getting on lads?

Played very well against the Windies and I’m hopeful of a similar display against UAE
Amidst the wreckage of the England innings the beacon of light that was a superb 17 from Captain Morgan has been overlooked. He’s back.
Or in other words, 0.02542372881 runs required per over.
Which fella is the soup taking cunt then?
Afraid not. A large part of the buck stops with Captain Morgan. He’s just not officer class.
I imagine the atmosphere in that dressing room must be as poisonous as the atmosphere in the staff room of his alma mater, Catholic University School, Leeson Street, since Fr. Daly’s reign of terror began almost two decades ago.
The fundamental problem is the batting, which is a shambles. Carberry, Cook, Pietersen, Bopara and Stokes should all be in ahead of what’s there at the moment.
Very good performance from the Windies to blow away Pakistan. They’ve a very good run rate now as well. Likely to be between Ireland, Pakistan and Zimbabwe for the last quarter final slot in that group.
Yes, the result did not favour the boys in green. Could have to beat Pakistan as well.
[QUOTE=“Manuel Zelaya, post: 1091306, member: 377”]Don’t care much for India’s prospects. They’ve been in Australia for over 3 months now and form has not been good in either the test series or the one day series that followed.

What do I know. Thumping 130 win for India over South Africa following on from their comprehensive win over Pakistan last week.
