Morgan's no better, though, at the moment.

He's a better captain. He's also horribly out of form with the bat, but at least he HAS been good in the past. Cook has never been good in one dayers, and especially not since the rule changes, making the fact that he's played 92 of them baffling.

We're in for a torrid time in the WC

We've been hopeless for the last 3 or 4 WC's, before that, although never winners we were at least competitive.

Morgan just might find some inspiration in captaincy....nothing to lose really, as nobody expects anything.

I'm happy enough with the decision to remove Cook and replace with Morgan. Yes Morgan has also been out of form but he's done well with the bat when captained before and his game suits ODI cricket whereas Cook's simply didn't. He had to go and I'm pleased the selectors/ecb management have grown a pair for once!

Anyone watching SA destroying Windies in today's ODI? SA 360-1 after 45 overs. Amazing.

He's got another 6 balls to get 2 I believe!

The crazy thing is that Anderson's record was in a shortened game that was 21 overs- this is a proper match!

Wow, finishes it off with a 6, 104 from 31 balls. Simply amazing.

Wait he's got 110 from 32 now....

Can he mathematically reach the double ton?

Fuck! Shane Watson's fastest 150 record still stands, ADV out for 149, from 44 balls. Incredible.

Nice to see England pick up a 9 wicket win this morning, and Steve Finn picking up 5 wickets, against India. Aussies up next...
