Group B - Pakistan, England, Netherlands

[Jamee999]

Who the hell thought that ICC World Twenty20 England 2009 would be a good name?

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

Someone is succeeding at taking the mantle of the biggest wanker in England now that Symonds has left...

 

[Uppercut]

Did someone forget to tell the undertaker to bury this guy?

Never seen such charisma!

Welcome to Lord's, mate. There's nothing quaint or loveable about the English upper classes.

Too right, almost as charismatic as the fella in your avatar. They should blatently have picked Bruce and Michael Buffer to open the tournament, would have been far more entertaining than those 2. I can see it now:

WE.ARE.Livvvvveeeeeeeeee. For the thousands in attendance, and the millions watching at home, Oooooooooooooooooo, lets get ready to rumble.

Would have been quality.

I have a soft spot for Prince Philip and his entertaining ability to say the worst possible thing every time he speaks.

 

[stumpski]

Yes - let's hold it up a few minutes longer, before too long the rain will be back. Should be any minute now.

Riveting stuff

I think that was the Duke of Kent, wasn't it? Does look a bit like him though.

 

[Uppercut]

Did anyone else think they were playing the Twelve Days of Christmas when the Dutch anthem started?

 

[Prince EWS]

@ England's selection for this game.

 

[superkingdave]

Great, my sky decides to start ****ing cos of the weather just as we are about to start

It was.

Was related to the "nothing quaint or loveable" comment when cleary there is much to love about Philip.

 

[Neil Pickup]

I love Collingwood's singing. Gaaawdd Saaaaaive Aiiirrrr Queeeeeen....

 

[pasag]

RTD to impress with the ball.

 

[superkingdave]

Wright to score less than 10

 

[S Chanderpaul]

Why is that idiot Key playing ffs

Should of played Dimi and moved Morgan up the order.

 

[King Pietersen]

Nice start Rav. 4 first ball, hopefully Nannes'll keep bowling those!

 

[grecian]

@ England's selection for this game.

Can't say I find it terribly amusing

Tempted to put money on the Dutch

 

[stumpski]

I wonder how many of those who handed over £40 or £50 for their tickets today realised that KP wouldn't be playing.



Not the best of starts for Nannes' first ball in international cricket.

 

[four_or_six]

Dirk Nannes, doesn't look that scary.
