Sideshow Bob back for England

Ryan Sideshow BottomBob is back for England in the 2nd test against the West Indies, drafted in to provide cover for injured Matthew Hoggard.
I can’t actually find anything else to say about it. Is it a good idea? I don’t know, but I think any person with as hair as cool as that deserves a […]

Schofield report tomorrow

The results of the inquest into England’s shocking performance in Australia this Winter will be published tomorrow. Anticipation is high surrounding the thoughts of 6 men, including Nasser Hussein and Angus Fraser, on where England went wrong (well, we already know that) but importantly what should be done in going forward in to the future. […]

Matt Prior announces himself to England

I’m not jumping over any guns here, but Matt Prior has done a very impressive job of saying “cheers” to England coach Peter Moores. Moores, chose to put his faith in the Sussex ‘keeper, and said ‘keeper duly repaid him with a magical century on debut. OK, so it was the 4th century of the […]

Who’d be an English wicket-keeper?

It’s no secret that the position of English wicket-keeper has in the last couple of years become almost farcical. But what isn’t clear is quite how it descended in to started plumbing the depths that it has. Chris Read and Geraint Jones are the two most high-profile casualties of the scandal, but considering neither made […]

New ‘Team England’

The waiting is over. The question has been answered. The era of a new English cricket team has been officially ushered in and it’s all systems go. New coach Peter Moores has made a statement. He’s done it. This is the one. The New England Squad. Wow. Exciting.
Oh wait, it’s the same squad as the […]

Steve Harmison - a reminder

I hope Steve has screwed his head back on. If he has, then watch out West Indies.

Vaughan to miss… some more cricket

Oop. You know it’s bad when you start typing an entry and you’ve already used it before. Well, it did save me a few characters typing when the autocomplete thingy did it for me. But yes, Vaughan, bless him, has injured himself again. This time it’s his finger after copping one on the hand from […]

English cricket starts new future

England’s final match in the 2007 World Cup neatly signals the start of new things for the side. The match, against the West Indies, was not without its highlights - foremost it was to be Duncan Fletcher’s last game in charge, a fact shadowed by the fact that it was also Brian Lara’s last one […]

England don’t fail to disappoint

Ah well. Hopeless optimism. It’s a skill and a facet of any England supporter. You have to believe. You have to want it. You have to think, that despite everything going against, that England could still prevail. You know that it’s not likely to happen, but there’s always a glimmer of hope. The latest World […]

Big teams key England in

England are, remarkably, not down and out of this World Cup just yet. Despite playing mediocre cricket and failing to beat a decent test side, they are still in a position where virtually one match separates them from a place in the semi-finals. Should a miracle happen and a ray of sunlight somehow shined its […]
