That also eases Collingwood's nerves a bit. But I think, Morgan's loss is huge - he was the improviser in the English team.]]> Wed, 09 Feb 2011 12:44:28 +0000 http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5099&PID=212724#212724 The Honours Board : The Ashes 2010/11 in Australia http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5099&PID=212718#212718 Author: spin wizard

Sledger deserves an award for this, probably the first time in his Cricketworld history that he hasn't performed the famous kiss of death.  For that, Bopara should be riding with plenty luck in the WC.]]> Wed, 09 Feb 2011 12:15:39 +0000 http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5099&PID=212718#212718 The Honours Board : The Ashes 2010/11 in Australia http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5099&PID=212684#212684 Author: Sledger

If Morgan is out I've a feeling that Bopara will get back - his experience of IPL might just swing it for him. He's also got a happy knack of picking up wickets - something not to be sneezed at.]]> Tue, 08 Feb 2011 06:15:55 +0000 http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5099&PID=212684#212684 The Honours Board : The Ashes 2010/11 in Australia http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5099&PID=212673#212673 Author: Hammond

I think England will be ok with Broad & Swann back in- Morgan will be a big loss if he out all tounament but with people like Denly kicking around I think England will find replacements easily. They just didn't prioritise this odi series. Australia are in for a shock when the other teams in the WC dismantle them like a lego kit. ]]> Tue, 08 Feb 2011 01:24:16 +0000 http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5099&PID=212673#212673 The Honours Board : The Ashes 2010/11 in Australia http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5099&PID=212661#212661 Author: spin wizard

Sledge, look on the bright side, at least Yardy has been a decent find in this series.  Bowl alright and made some runs, not to bad to carry to India. 

I find both teams need a bit of stick in the bowling department, the lower order has gotten away too often!

Well it's finally over , another hellish batting effort after another sound bowling performance. I don't know what they put in Pietersen's tea at breakfast , but that innings was the most frenetic I've seen in a long , long time - I thought he could get out off every ball.  Simply embarrassing , he should donate all proceeds from this one day series to the Queensland appeal.
              Nice knock by Voges , I've always thought him a decent bat.  

         A whole three days in Blighty before heading off to Bangladesh - they'll feel fresh as daisies after that kind of holiday !Dead

ECB dosen't think ODIs T20s as a joke, they want to win each one of them.I don't buy that they didn't care about this series.
 
They are down 5-1 , for quite a few reasons,
Yes Ashes was very important, they won it so they wanted to give rest to main players and try out lot of different combinations before WC. As WC was fast approaching and playing already tired players in 7 match ODIs would be  risk & foolishness. They did the right thing, That said I am sure they wanted to win each and every match in ODIs too.
 
I feel they played safe before the world cup.Kind of a trade off. They very well know come the real world cup matches , they will be well set for it.

ECB might think the others as fun but that doesn't matter, how the players approach it at the end of the day is what matters.  No player like to lose, at least no player who loves to win.]]> Fri, 04 Feb 2011 12:49:37 +0000 http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5099&PID=212579#212579 The Honours Board : The Ashes 2010/11 in Australia http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5099&PID=212563#212563 Author: Hammond

Apart from the game I actually went to the ground and watched- I don't think I've bothered watching more than a few balls of the rest. Flower is a smart bloke- second string attack all the way through the series, give your bowlers a rest after a 5 test marathon- play Finn & Anderson because they've both had a break- batsman need runs so keep them on the field.
 
Flower has used this whole series as a training camp for the world cup. Let's hope all the injuries heal miraculously just in time for the WC- even then England will be thinking more seriously going forward about the upcoming test series v India.
 
The ECB is full of people who want to be number one in test cricket (read as a priority) The other types of cricket really at the end of the day are just for fun and for getting more cricket ignorant people to watch on tv.

Sledger is correct about KP, he's been out of form too long for a top player.  Lara and co has looked scratchy throughout their career, but i highly doubt they've been out of form this long.  Besides the 227, KP hasn't really done much since the start of 2009 I reckon, or maybe i've gone back to long?]]> Thu, 03 Feb 2011 14:08:03 +0000 http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5099&PID=212545#212545
