Need Amjad back on so I can get my prediction right.

Might be the only useful thing he does in his international career.

In fairness he got Sarwan out, in the form of his life, with the most obvious bowling plan of all time. Then that says more about the other England bowlers than him tbh.

Ha, Harmy & Prior both looking somewhat less than gutted at England's predicament there.

FFS Khan, that's just schoolboy. Why bowl a bouncer now?!?

Can't claim to have watched the game, but having read the last couple of pages and had a look at the scorecard, have to say, selection is dire. We're crap at limited overs cricket anyway, but picking Amjad and Batty isn't helping. I understand Davies playing to some extent, but not at the expense of Prior, who is in the form of his life.

I imagine that they thought they'd give Davies a try (fair enough). Once they had made that decision it was a pretty sensible decision to take the opportunity to give Prior a rest for this game rather than play him as a specialist batsman.

Side was a shocker (Batty, Khan...) but I can't get why Strauss is coming in 6 in a 20/20 game. He shouldn't be in the side of course but If he is going to play, stick him as opener or hide him at 11.

Because Prior's an absolutely useless OD batsman.
