So the success of the England team evidently hasn't raised the IQ of it's fanbase!

Sit down, Pratyush.

lol - this side has a lot more bottle than any previous England side I can remember!

 

[marc71178]

Meh, you get what you pay for. You pick a batter, you get a batter.

Yes, and that 50 was well due IMO.

Sure has reduced the noise from the SA fanbase tho.

 

[Langeveldt]

Yeah, the one strong fanbase!
I think its about one strong in SA too..

"We don't play cricket any more" came the mumbled response from my SA Business Studies teacher..

Damn right, Tiddlywinks, the way forward

 

[Marcus]

Dare i say the best England side ever...a fighting theam,...many options and a captian that cant put a foot wrong.....we will win t-rrow no doubt but a dtrong opening hour is needed and getting rid of kallis among others must happen quickly.....Im sorry to rant on abut Butcher but Bell could do a much better job at 3.......and hes another bowling option as well...Butcher does less and less bowling nowerdays and tbh less and less batting.......Best competing England side ever though.......role on the witewash this series.....then rock on the aussies

 

[SpaceMonkey]

Gibbs fined 40% of his match fee for 'misleading the umpire' by pointing to his arm when England went up for a catch.
But he was actually right that the ball did hit his arm .... so dunno how you could say he was misleading the umpire!

Interesting to note that Pratyush hasn't appeared yet.
