The Official England Summer Cricket Thread!

[dww]

I know, one swallow doesn't make a summer. Or, um, something like that.

Until any English team string four wins against reputable opposition together in any sport it should always be viewed as the build up before the fall.

****ing hell, Collingwood bowled through the gate just like KP. Wrong 'un. ****ing hell. 176-4.

It's all gone quiet over there, it's all gone quiet over there!

[dww]

It's all gone quiet over there, it's all gone quiet over there!

To be fair before the last game England thought that to be within 50 was a victory. I think India should be embarrased about their bowling display (despite Patels quite lethal over).

That was a fantastic game of cricket last night. A valiant effort from England - that was our highest ever 2nd innings ODI total. Mascheranas was fantastic, as was Broad swinging the bat right at the death.
