OK you all know how much I love cricket and how much a part of my life ( take that as 'all my life') cricket is. Well yesterday saw the lowest point ever in my cricket life ( apart from when His Royal Ryanness retired from International cricket).
England really cannot win at cricket at the moment
England Stew
Combine players, coaches and management
Add a liberal amount of social media
Throw in constant heckling from a former player
Crumble in a bit of indiscretion
Sprinkle with pundits
Top with lots and lots of hubris
Roast in the Australian/New Zealand sun until nicely brown and send home!
Hey presto England in a stew!!!!!
Best served with Humble Pie!!!
What is the answer?
Well if I knew that I would not be sitting here typing a blog at stupid o'clock every day now would I????
I would be in The UAE as part of the ECB set up.
Possibly not to hail every new England recruit as 'the saviour' of the team and let them find their own place, after all they were selected for a reason. Stop building them up only to hack them down equally as quickly
What ever the answer is, it is not to be found on either Twitter or Facebook, where every man has their say. To be honest England play poo ( technical cricket term), but I would like to see some of their Twitter followers do better!!!!
Now on to much more important things..................
Ireland are in action as we speak and they have won more matches in this World Cup competition than England have won in the last year ( OK OK I am only joking!!!).
So how is it going!!!!
Not too well at the moment as they are taking on the current World cup champions India.
After posting 259 all out, Ireland are struggling to take an Indian wicket and they stand at 121-0 in the 17th over.
COME ON YOU BOYS IN GREEN!!!
Lets see those wickets start to tumble!
And so endeth the blog for today.
Oh yes, rumour has it that after ice and torrential rain yesterday here in the North of Blighty, the sun might have his hat on today!
P.S 7.00am India 193-2! COME ON IRELAND!!!!!
