If it was a 50 over game then surely a few runs an over would have won it?

I love the way the BBC text commentary guy was becoming increasingly desparing as our innings unfolded, he summed up exactly how I felt, Ganguly was having a giggle when he suggested we could win the word cup.

The Kiwis won a bonus point too,that could cost us our chances of getting to the final,i say thank fuck for it,the sooner they get home the better.I'm bored, tired and depressed of losing all the time,so God knows what its doing to the team. And as for the WC,Ganguly must have been slapped a la Chappell if he thinks we stand a chance :nuts: :shake:

Batting was pants apart from Ed Joyce who batted very well and was out to a magnificent catch. Bowling and Fielding was good.

Why is Nixon ahead of Dalrymple in the batting line up.

why is Nixon playing?? Id go with Prior as a pinch hitter .. or get Davies in and keep him there for a longer period of time .. whats the point of a 36 year old

I would give chris read a go in the next 4 matches because in my opinion his batting technique is for ODI games.

its too early for Davies. he needs more time with his county/the academy i think. we dont want another James Foster all over again where he is rushed into international cricket too soon. why dont they just play Read for ODI's?

I remember Foster doing well in NZ in 2002. I think he played the boxing day test match at Melborune in 2002 where vaughan and rob key batted very well. I would go with Foster.
