Warm ups for World Cup

Awful. Just awful.

Batting first in conditions that were perfectly suited for England's seamers? Dire decision making.

Throwing away wickets trying to hit over the infield when you should be spending time out in the middle? Dire and unprofessional.

We need a proper coach so badly. This team is not without talent but is like a rudderless ship and doomed to crash and burn. This is going to be a horrible World Cup.

Ian Bishop was so frustrated today and if he had any hopes on this team prior to today, he surely had given it up after the way they capitulated.

I feel his pain. There is just no professionalism being displayed. In those conditions I can understand the top order losing their wickets (though Gayle is seriously worrying me now). I can even understand Jonathan Cater missing a slow straight ball from a Treadwell, it can happen occasionally. But the likes of Samuels, Sammy and Russell gifting their wickets with so many overs to go is just completely unprofessional.

Goodness knows what their attitude is going to be like against Ireland. All I can say is if it's not right they may well lose.

Pakistan team started his journey to the Cricket World Cup 2015 Final today :lol:

Feb 9, 2015: World Cup warm-up: Sohaib Maqsood's unbeaten 93 takes Pakistan (247/7) to 3-wicket win over Bangladesh (246)

I enjoyed the match with my Cricket Scorekeeper App

i noticed chris gayle yesterday posting pictures of himself and some of his teammates eating a **** off chinese, downed with beer.

some of these boys seem to treat tours first and foremost as holidays.

You never know, but it shouldn't be. Feb/March are generally the most settled, summery months here.

tends to depend on the summer. It's been pretty dry this December and January so that often means Feb and March are more wet.

The man who scored 36* off 174 in a World Cup match thinks Cricket should be thankful for the limited overs format. Interesting.

This game is more significant to India than we think it is. India haven't won a game since they landed in Australia so they better try not to make it a habit.
