270 is the minimum on this pitch. That's a weak performance. Enough batsmen got in, and then just gave their wickets away. We profited from some poor captaincy from Sammy and some bad fielding. I don't agree with Prior batting at 2, it doesn't improve us in any way. I know we've lost KP and Broad but we should still be posting a better target than that. If Gayle, Pollard, Smith or Bravo get in then this could be over with 10/15 overs to spare!

if the windies go at it could be over very quickly, if Galye is in the mood!

Gayle
Tendulkar
Dilshan
Kallis
Watson
Taylor
Sangakara/McCullum
Afridi
Vettori
Malinga
Morkel

Something like that for my staring XI maybe not enough seam, and too many openers.
Not an Englishman in sight.

Chris Gayle is giving it some right now! This is top stuff.

massive wicket

Tredders strikes! need to get right on top of them now. Smith and Bravo are still very dangerous.

need to take wickets quick!!

1 to go !!!! get in

windies will do it.
couldn't give a toss either way, it's probably better for England to go out now than in the next game.

get in!!!!! i belive again!! just!!! phewwwwwwww

oh mr smith doom and gloooom come on its quite exciting when it comes down to the last few overs

Or is it just that your team are total fucking rubbish?

is this still going on??

It's official - One-day cricket is shite.

Don't be so hasty

oh mr smith doom and gloooom come on its quite exciting when it comes down to the last few overs

it's nothing compared to the excitement of the ashes.
if England get to the final i might watch it (the last 5 mins)

I lost about 2 hours work watching the game today.

I <3 Sky HD being on directly in front of me :)

England are still rubbish, the Windies just threw that game away.

its not test cricket so the build up is not as good but i like the quick chase and count down to the end. different style of play to tests. enjoy the last 5 mins ;P mr S

WI needed 22 from 54 with 4 wkts left and an established partnership well set at one point!

All our games have been exciting - we are not playing very well but it is exciting.

Can we still go out?

yep think if Bangladesh beat SA. then we are out

if we (bangladesh) beat south africa, you need west indies to lose to india. you can still make it, but west indies will try hard and india have nothing to play for as they are through if they lose i think, as are south africa

I support Sri Lanka now. I have very strong connections with the country.

ton for sanga today took him past 9000 career ODI runs!
mahela, mathews and murali all had a good game too. i was too busy today to even check the score at any point so first thing i did when i got home :-D

looks like a spicy game developing :-)

Gotta feel sorry for the Aussies... ;P
