Title: 4th ODI Post by: reeves4england on Thursday, April 6, 2006, 13:54:19 Lets be honest we only have half a team out there so it doesn't bother me too much that we are losing.
And like people said, its tests that matter!

And like people said, its tests that matter! Of course individually the tests are more important. But we are now less than 12 months away from the World Cup and we still seem unable to find any proper form in the one day internationals. ODI cricket is still a fantastic spectacle and well under appriciated by the British public. I think we need to take it more seriously. But then of course Il contradict myself totally by saying the absolute focus for the next 12 months is retaining the Ashes in Australia. So who gives a toss about the world cup 3 months later! :mrgreen: Title: 4th ODI Post by: reeves4england on Thursday, April 6, 2006, 16:46:23 Would rather win the Ashes than the WC every time. Of course we want to see the team do well in the ODIs but when you have half a team of stand-ins what do you expect!?

And like people said, its tests that matter! did we? well how come india got 10 wickets then? :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick: thats no exuse for such a poor performance! i do care about the WC and id love us to win. it wont happen. in an ideal world id like to win both that and the ashes but we wont win either if we play like we have this winter. Title: 4th ODI Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Thursday, April 6, 2006, 18:18:20 oh and for everyone who says ODIs dont matter then your stupid. if we were shit at tests then you would say tests dont matter :-))(
