Played with plenty of twats like that over the years. Think the game revolves around them.

Worst case I remember was some lad getting out cheaply when we were batting 1st
taking a huff and then leaving. We still ended up winning, even with 10. He wasn't welcome after that really.

Surprised that this Windies lad hasn't been banned for more.

Well good series for the windies. Those world cup qualifying points done them big time..So should be at next 50/50 world cup. Hopefully although ways are going it might us struggling to Qualify for the next one at this rate. We are currently 6th out of the 8 that qualify automatically.

So yes vital series actually. Biggest one will be in Ireland at the moment this could decide who gets top 8 between us.

Don't cricket fans realise these are now qualifying series??

I'd like to see us struggle/fail to qualify for the 50 over WC. Not out of any malice or desire to see England fail, but I think it's the only way for the powers that be to realise we can't keep abusing and neglecting the 50 over game in the way we have been.

And WI are still not great. Any half competent side would've put them away

I wasn't aware, no. Hopefully those involved with England do in that case

We have a fantastic domestic 50/50 tournament. The fact the players especially England players refuse to play in it because they can earn more money elsewhere is not the fault of the ECB or the counties.

Maybe all these players Salt especially will make themselves available for next seasons 50/50 or just go and earn a fortune from other competitions. And who can blame them.

It's not the England players that has weakened the 50 over tournament. It's the majority of county players who are playing at the same time in the 16.4.

This has resulted in the counties having to pick reserves and development players. Not a bad idea in theory to blood youngsters to see how they do but in practice it doesn't work as they are not quite ready to step up.
