Fletcher might know how to get us good in Tests but he doesn't appear to have a clue with this One Day stuff. Could we have a different coach for the different types of cricket??!!!

Can anyone explain why Bell was subbed and not Prior or G.Jones?? Seems baffling to me as Bell is a far superior player to either of them and also provides another option with the ball as well as being a good fielder.

Well its not all over yet.... Blackwell is still batting... as i heard he is a good hitter.... and Kabir Ali shuld give him support... he can bat a bit... England needs 84 runs off 19 overs with 2 wickets in hand..... it is possible.... if this pair goes on for another 5-6 overs than England has a chance to come back... well this is what i feel....

Fletcher seems to like playing TWO keepers! Quite stupid. But then his One Day reign has been mostly rubbish. We haven't improved under him at this Limited Over game.

This is a shocker and a half from England. When I went out, Pakistan were four wickets down and England had the wind in their sails for a change. I come back and find England 119-8. Hopeless. Just hopeless. I'm not necessarily surprised at the way the series is going - I said England had no chance before it started - but I really did think Trescothick's men might have put up a little bit of a fight. To cave in repeatedly like this is just beyond a joke.
