**Official** England in the West Indies 2013-14

[NasserFan207]

Yeah, Jordan was disappointing from what I saw. Surely you'd take Woakes over Dernbach though

 

[Pothas]

Well I am never going to begrudge Sammy scoring runs.

 

[theegyptian]

match really feels like a warmup. Why didn't Broad bowl himself more, or Stokes at all? Jordan was fireing them down leg early so to bowl him at the death seems questiionable especially with Broad still with overs left.

 

[Pothas]

Clarke is so unlikeable but kind of impressive at the same time.

 

[NasserFan207]

Was pretty bad captaincy from Broad in general

 

[Burgey]

Wow. Some fat **** ate Ravi Rampaul.

 

[Burgey]

First I've seen of Ali. He's pretty good to watch. Has that kind of languid swing of the bat.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Wow. Some fat **** ate Ravi Rampaul.

Got a decent sports bra too as they not wobbling.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Holder is a big letdown, not gained any pace really from when he was star of the under 19 world cup a few years back.

 

[Burgey]

Got a decent sports bra too as they not wobbling.

Neither is the ball. WI need to take the pace off

 

[GIMH]

Smashed it

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Amazing it took so long it was so clear.

 

[Cabinet96]

Bumble won't be impressed with two delays in two balls.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Seems strange seeing a decent stand by England.

 

[King Pietersen]

Moeen looks really good at the top. Very fluent, hoping he can have a good series, be nice if we could have Cook, Moeen and Trott as the top 3 in the summer. Not sure about Lumb. I like the guy, but I'm just not convinced in any format other than T20i. He still sucks against spin, and doesn't look particularly good against the moving ball. How'd he go last season for Hampshire?

 

[Pothas]

Been at Notts the last few years, had done fairly well in longer form for them but don't think he has done much in 40 over stuff.

 

[King Pietersen]

Ha, yeah, he has, shows how well I've been following the county stuff. Didn't think he had though, still has a pretty mediocre List A average, although Moeen's isn't great either. Would like it if they both performed though, fan of both of them.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Moeen gone, got bogged down after a flying start. Decent debut though.

 

[Pothas]

Oh lad. Yeah it got a bit scratchy the last 20 minutes but not a bad start.

 

[YorksLanka]

Moeen Ali, looks like he is fitting into top tier cricket ok...good on him...
