I've said this before and I'll say it again. There is no way we will win the WC with such a horrendous bowling attack. We need our batsmen to get over 350 in every match to win matches.

Anderson needs to find a semblance of his old self if we're to stand a chance.
Bell is riding his luck something rotten.
I actually think we've picked the right attack today with what we've got, 5 bowlers and collingwood/other part timers to chip in. We had 1 less against Holland. This pitch is obviously more suited to batting. However I agree we can't keep giving teams 300 runs and expecting to chase it down each time.
Think he's talking about India.
150 up for Strauss, very well played.
Indian heads have dropped. They look like a beaten team out there, which is nice.
Dropped at slip

Another drop from Bell.
Strauss has been exceptional the past 18 months, terrific innings.
Bell gone, makes it interesting.
Strauss gone! Now this makes it very interesting.
Zaheer. Our only good bowler 
Brilliant innings Straussy
Come on England, don't throw this away now!
Wow, India still have a chance. Batting powerplay will be key but with 2 new players they'll need time to settle.
Would love to have Bopara in this situation
Good work Chawla! Just 2 runs from.
3 runs from the last 2 overs. Brilliant work!

Hello, she's a bit of alright there. Must be a cushy job being a camera man at the cricket or tennis, just look around and zoom in on the attractive women.
5 runs off the last 3 overs. Really come back into this match now
thanks to Chawla and Zak
thanks to Chawla and Zak
Collingwood will be the key.
Zak is brilliant.
him and bhajji are the only decent experienced bowlers in the squad

Bowled! Yessss :d
Feck feck feck
Classic case of England taking the batting powerplay at the wrong time.
her?
model/Bollywood actress
That's the one.
Indeed.
Need a big performance from Bres or Yardy, just wish Samit would bother to lose some weight, he in this England team instead of Yardy would really make it strong.
Just checked in to see the score.
I see England are doing a bottle job again. Typical. Still good effort lads.

I can't believe Dhoni's captaincy. fecking idiot. Should've brought teh field up about 10 overs ago. Gave Strauss and Bell a million singles and twos.
Keep the faith
Edit: I must have jinxed that wicket.

Oh boy, the classic england collapse. Brilliant.
Bhajji now.. our best bowlers getting the job done
Prior gone! Yessss!
Finally a boundary.
England can do this, come on Yardy!
1 big over from England would put them back in command.
another wicket should remove any steam left in the england players.
Yardy's off!
What a shocking, shocking throw away from Yardy.
