Er... you realise it's been the batting rescuing us from terrible bowling so far this world cup till today? With the loss to Ireland being due to terrible bowling after the Batsman had given them a good platform? Even today only Swanny, Brezza and Broady can hood their heads up.in bowling terms. Jimmy and Yardy were shocking.diamond.jack99 wrote:we still need to sort out our batting but good fight at the end shown by our bowlers and glad we wonDiamondEejit wrote:England need to pull their finger out now! sloppy fielding and atrocious bowling in all 3 games now, not much batting bast no.4 without Morgan.

Jimmy's problem is Indian pitches, remove swing and he's just a straight medium pacer.

Re: Cricket...
KP going home and Morgan called up to replace him. I'd imagine Bell will be moved up to replace him at the top. Don't think it will strengthen or weaken the batting, it's just a shame that we couldn't have them together this world cup! Although the batting looks suspect against Bangladesh if Morgan isn't their in time :/
