***Official*** England in South Africa 2015/16

Wow this is fun

Perfect opportunity for some downhill ski-ing, however spectacular it may appear. Chasing a moderate total against a mediocre attack in a side that's blatantly got their minds on the flight home.

As for England's batting, less said the better.

England are going to get smashed at the WT20...

Lady Luck has given this day to SA.

So the bowling has been just fine, its the batsmen that let them down.

Based on one or two games? Australia will also get hammered by that logic. Tough to bowl to these guys in this kind of form.

Lol what about all the french cuts Hales had during the ODI series?

 

[vcs]

OMG that was a magnificent shot from Amla. That pad flick was prime 90s-Sachin like.

Finn looking better and better with each game he's not playing in.

Jordan hopefully played himself out of contention for the World Cup.

 

[kykweer.proteas]

Jordan is already going to the world cup bar an injury, isnt he?

 

[Stace]

Well no. That's not even almost the point I made. I just said I don't think his style makes him a better opener than #8.

I've seen nothing from him to suggest that him opening the batting on current form would be anything other than a disaster.

Still, why let pesky facts get in the way?

You did say that, you said he's exactly the batsman you want to come in the last 10 overs, do you really want me to go find your post?

So getting 2 ODI centuries as an opener isn't enough to show you he's a better opener? Everyone can see it but you.

 

[kykweer.proteas]

Massacre

 

[harsh.ag]

Monster start

 

[weldone]

really disappointing finishing from England after the fantastic partnership between Buttler and Morgan...They were 157/3 after 16.2 overs....In last 3.4 overs they managed 14/7

They are not batting with clear heads...Someone needs to give them a plan for how to bat in different situations while batting first

And now they are getting murdered by AB and Amla as expected.

 

[kykweer.proteas]

Tbf id select id still select jordan over stokes.

 

[vcs]

Treat for cricket fans having these two opening the batting.

 

[Captain_Cook]

I'm not talking about any other games. The luck is flowing in one direction today aside from Duminy's drop.

 

[vcs]

Really should have brought on the spinner earlier when the
quicks were getting hammered so badly anyway.

EDIT : Perhaps not

 

[Scaly piscine]

Yea sorry I meant the starting XI. I think he may have played, not sure why he's been preferred to Willey.

 

[kykweer.proteas]

I though ab could get a 100 here... But then amla also went into beast mode.
