Another fudging shambles.

Just fudge off KP............totally un-warranted selection, and has been for some time.

Was just saying this to my dad, plays for himself, is not and never will be a team player, id rather they bring in a youngster and give him time, Bell also has looked absolutely shocking along with Morgan too
 
Do they players not learn anything, why are all of them playing of the back foot to the spinners, jeez

68/6, Trott out now
 
Well we now know how to beat us, a good spin attack and our players cannot play it..

Good job for now the Aussies dont have any

Someone was telling me, in the dressing room, KP takes no part in any "team" things, doesn't talk to the others, and at times won't even travel with the others. Right up his own arse.
Get rid.
 
KP got out to the left arm spinner both innings. He has an issue and it is quite clearly a technical problem but because he won't accept he has an issue the management can't seem to get him to sort it out.
 
Yes I was.



Supporting a team is not as easy as that.

I support England in the football and the rugby and generally in cricket as well but I have been bought up by my father as a Pakistan fan, I have been to watch Pakistan with my dad many times as a child and have continued to do so all my life. It may make sense for me to support England but what has sense got to do with it? My love for Pakistan is just like my love for Spurs, I could not change it regardless of what makes sense. When I watch Pakistan i get nervous when it's clsoe and I get upset when they lose and joyous when they win. It's a feeling, can't change it and Leed Spur - you are defintely intelligent enough to understand my point?

Does that make sense?

I hear you mate, the Spurs analogy makes sense.

It's a wider issue for me though.......I don't think minorities feel British, they aren't unified under the flag like American immigrnts are for instance.

You only need to look at places like Bradford, Blackburn and Birmingham........Pakistani's live in the same areas, don't mix or integrate, marry in their own culture and the level of english spoken by some people, especially women, who have been here 30 years is shocking.

I hope African and Eastern european immigrants will try to integrate more, and that the British born and bred people will embrace them.
 
Avereged nearly 50 in tests last year......I agree he has been poor in this series but your point isnt backed up by the stats

To be fair, he only averaged around 50 by scoring 20s and 30s, then scoring the odd 50 and 100.

Youre right though, i do think players like ravi bopara deserve a chance though, very good technical player
 
Just saw michael clarke is the 3rd best test batsmen in the world...ahead of Cook and Trott...

Almost as embarrasing as when mitchell johnson won cricketer of the year.

Oh the lolz :ross:
