There is no bigger supporter of English cricket than me.

But I hope we get demolished in this tournament (just to get rid of this joker Giles)

Who the fuck would pick 4 pace bowlers in a match in Bangladesh (Giles) where spin or slow bowlers take the most wickets( unless 90 mph plus )

Why pick Ali decent enough player but not 20/20 ( he is a innings builder )

Thats 7 defeats in last 8 games
Fkn embarassing
 

I'm sure the only people in the entire country who want Giles as head coach are the people with the authority to do so. He's a joke.
 
The ECB seem to love Giles in the same way Giles seems to love Dernbach.

We'll get slaughtered in this tournament but he'll still get the gig.

Think you're looking alright there.

I was fuming when Bresnan came in at number 3. Wasn't until a few balls later that Cricinfo changed it to Ali. Worst thing about it is that I actually thought they might have promoted him as a pinch hitter.

we had twelve playing hence the extra pace man in broad also played parry Treadwell and ali what did you want
 
I expect NZ to whallop us on Saturday :neutral:

We did okay against India today mind. I fancy the Aussies to do quite well, they have some power in their top 6.

Finch
Watson
Warner
White

Went to the T20 game at the Rose Bowl last summer, never seen anything like it from Finch, awesome power hitting.
 
I think our performance at the tournament means fuckall anyway with regard to the top job. Unfortunately I think Giles has got it anyway.

About as much charisma as a wet fart,
 
Yes, the World Cup will be irrelevant. Of course, this is just as well for Giles because we obviously won't beat anyone of note.
 
Spinners going to be key in the bunsen wickets in Bangladesh.

So that's sri lanka, windies favs
then india pak and aussies in next group of favs.

fuck it everyone bar us with a chance.
 
Not a big 20 20 fan but will watch it and what sort of squad have England backs, doesn't suit the conditions at all.

We only really have Morgan and Buttler who could be top class one day players. Hales to be fair is a good pick, very good record around the world but will struggle with spin I feel.

The rest of them christ, I dispair seeing the likes of Bopara and Luke Wright get picked time after time. Surely we have some big hitting young lads who could benefit from the experience.

Shame about Stokes, had a terrible time in the Windies but we all know he can be very destructive in this format

Ashley Giles though, dear oh dear
