Waddya mean a negative? That sounds like it could *be* the England side...

The Irish team is also made up of a handful of South Africans, Kiwis and Australinas with a brace of poms thrown in for good measure.


South Africa has also got in on the act. Chronically unable to grow their own spin bowlers they have stolen one from Pakistan.

Eek, good show from the dutch boy from port elizabeth.


So, almost 300 to chase. Who reckons KP trys to smack it around and is out for two?

Then we panic and play defensively for the next fifteen overs, then look like we might get back into it before a quick collapse?

And you missed a cracker - moving from easy confidence of an historic win while Strauss & Bell were batting to despair as we lost quick wickets during the Power Play (why do England always, always fall apart during a power play) to that most rare of results - a tie. Good stuff and infinitely better than my son's preference for the Carling Cup Final game.

    • I am trying to find out about people's experiences of the 4+ and 7+ assessments. I am a teacher and have a wealth of experience tutoring for theses assessments (including my own son), but it's always good to keep on top of things as they always make tweaks to them. TIA! 
    • "You have no idea why"   To be fair Sue, it's blindingly obvious to anyone who has a conversation with anyone who isn't a Corbyn supporter. And even some who liked Corbyn (like me initially) found him somewhat flaky even at his most popular But let's say you are right and I have NO idea why anybody might not vote for him. They still didn't vote for him. He lost two elections. The second one badly (and strongly predicted but the stubborn old goat wouldn't budge so we we were stuck with Johnson and another 3 million PMs in the 5 years that followed) So even with ZERO evidence, we have our eyes and ears and brains But we do have evidence   https://yougov.co.uk/politics/articles/27022-their-own-words-why-voters-abandoned-labour
    • As I said, it was my understanding. I worded it very carefully. I didn't/don't know for sure, so clearly not a fact. And hardly an "opinion", which is something completely different. You have no idea what reason anybody might have had for not voting for him (unless you can point to some opinion poll results which actually asked people?)
