    England - A Coaching Diary [ICC 2006]

    Thanks for reading guys :wub: -------- Sri Lanka in England - May 2006 With the victory in the Third Test fresh in my memory, I was reluctant to change a winning team. However, Panesar had suffered a fracture after being struck in the Second Innings - So I was forced to make one change to...

    Cool, looks like we are fairly similar at the moment - And Giles is almost bound to play in the Third Test now than Monty is injured. Because Blackwell can't bowl...:wacko: Screenshots of the 2nd Test are below \/ \/ \/

    SECOND TEST, Day Four The rain had passed, and Trescothick and Strauss went out to continue their innings. I hoped that we could reach 300, I think that would be an adequate total to defend on the final day on this kind of wicket - Where runs have come at roughly 2.75 an over for both teams...

    Number 3 is a bit of a problem area for me, I'm certainly going to have to go to Australia later in the year with a settled Top Six though, it doesn't help for me to be chopping and changing positions around every other week. Thanks for reading and commenting:D --- SECOND TEST, Day Two With...

    Sri Lanka in England - May 2006 After the defeat in the First Test, I evaluated the team I picked. The only players who had contributed little in my opinion were Pietersen and Harmison - but I could not contemplate dropping them, as they are both match-winners when on form. However, now that we...

    England - A Coaching Diary [ICC 2006]

    FIRST TEST, Day Five The clouds hang over Lords, as we prepare for the final days play. As long as these clouds remain throughout the day, I hope our pace attack can cause some real damage to Sri Lanka, and help engineer a victory. It all depends on how quickly we get stuck into the batting...

    England - A Coaching Diary [ICC 2006]

    FIRST TEST, Day Three Boycott was right, if we got it right with the New Ball, there was a possibility that we would be able to hold a first innings lead. If we got it wrong however, Sri Lanka would have a good chance of passing 400 runs and putting us under some pressure. The choice over who...

    Thank you Kweek --- FIRST TEST, Day Two So England started Day Two on a total of 288/6 - Inspired by a Trescothick score of 106, and an Andrew Strauss 50. How many runs would our tail be able to add to the overnight total? --- --- --- End of Day Two England - 349 All Out Sri Lanka -...

    Great! - I'll get started on it then. ---- Sri Lanka in England - May 2006 On the day that I was to select the Squad for the First Test, I checked the score from the Sri Lankans warm-up 3-day game against Durham. The news was not good, as the two England internationals involved in the game -...

    England - A Coaching Diary [ICC 2006]

    Hello all, would anyone be interested in reading a diary of me Coaching England on ICC 2006? I was thinking that to display it in a possibly different fashion and a more quintessentially "English" way that I would resurrect Geoffrey Boycott's end of day review of the action during matches to...

    Group B - Pakistan, South Africa, New Zealand, Sri Lanka

    Very disappointing to see us get skittled like that, but I agree that it's good to see some pitches where the bowlers can get on top and make the batsmen work for their runs. Having said that though, If Murali would have been bowling on that track, his balls would have pitched and turned to...

    1 innings a side FC cricket?

    I'm a hopeless old traditionalist to be honest, and I just love the two-innings game too much to part with it.
