Positive start from the openers, but they need to stay in for a long time and keep on top of the rate.

Fantastic effort by England, but just seems to be slipping away now after losing both Bell then Strauss in the same over.

Eng 283/4.

Struggle to see us winning this now. Run rate too high. Need Prior to come off in a big way as I can't see Collingwood getting us there.

Re: Cricket World Cup : Sun Feb 27, 2011 4:34 pm  

Collingwood clean bowled.

Pathetic

34 needed from 3 overs with 4 wickets left.

Yardy what on earth was that? Terrible. England snatching defeat from the jaws of victory

It was always going to happen once the Strauss/Bell partnership was broken, as predictable as night follows day.

Yeah but come on. Yardy what on earth was he playing at there? Knew we were struggling when Collingwood went out to the middle but thought we would get close at least. Terrible.

The fat ladys not singing yet, still need 14 from the last over.
