I begrudgingly accept these series as a Windies fan because of the cash injection we get from them but they are somewhat tiresome. Still, always a nice opportunity to beat England.

We’ve started well at least.

 

[NYRB]

England bowled out for 209 in the 1st ODI.

Criminal not to be using the full 50 overs. Bowled out in 45.1 overs.

 

[NYRB]

Rain may save England from Cricbuzz:

"18:13 Local Time, 22:13 GMT, 03:43 IST: The ground is currently under covers as a rain filled passing cloud went over the ground. The rain has stopped for now the outfield remains wet and the covers are still in place."

not one of the england test squad in the odi squad.

it seems to be the way nowadays when a test series and white ball series are closely scheduled together.

 

[cricketnut14]

4 wicketkeepers in the england odi squad - salt, pepper, butler, cox

 

[NYRB]

I dont think this England A squad or this team would come close to an Aus A team.

Was hoping WI would get Jewel Andrew straight into the action especially against an attack that has a mix of some genuinely good bowlers but also a few that can be attacked.

The worry of course with any young stroke player from the Caribbean is that they catch the eye and then they’re whisked away before they can have a meaningful career in any format. Boy he has some talent though based on some of his age cricket achievements and some of the glimpses he’s shown at senior level

 

[NYRB]

So Jamie Overton not bowling and playing as a batsman effectively? At 8 ? What’s happened to England as a ODI team since becoming world champions in 2019?

Apart from a 4 year period under Bayliss.

England has been a garbage ODI team for 5 decades.

1 x World Cup win where they need a boundary countback.

Hopefully it ends up 1-0 West Indies and get stuffed England.

Lewis makes the Windies such a better ODI side

I misread the topic header as "31/10/19 to Nov 24" and thought "that's a very long tour".

England long term recruiting their next generation

England long term recruiting their next generation

took a while to reunite Salt and Pepper

 

[NYRB]

England are nothing special.....

Too much cricket - last couple of months in engs calendar there were 6 tests then a short form series v aus then a 3 test tour and now this wi series.

Losing is only meaningful when you’re motivated to play.

Tell that to the players being given an opportunity.

Every outing for a professional cricketer especially at international level, is a marketing one. There is no reason at least individually for a player to ever not be motivated anymore

 

[NYRB]

West Indies beat England 2-1, in two consecutive seasons on their home deck.

Not the best preparation coming up for the Champions Trophy given they don't have much games to come:



Australia are going into the 50 over Champions Trophy with the 2nd least games.

At least the c**ts are going into it.

At least when the Windies pick someone with sub-par domestic stats there’s usually a pretty good reason for it: ie. there’s only 60-odd regulars in the region to choose from, and 20 of them wouldn’t be getting a game if their better credentialed island brethren weren’t playing franchise cricket overseas so really it’s only 40 players that are earning their domestic spot in the first place.

What are the poms picking them on?

A sleeve tattoo, standing above 6 foot, once rolling their fingers down the side of a used women’s cricket ball during a f**ken net session and middling a slog sweep during a Lancashire League match in between games for a franchise competition for a format that doesn’t even exist beyond England itself after someone decided 120 ball games weren’t short enough so they’d trim 20 more off them. F**k me

Can't disagree one iota, but I won't do that.
