I never knew Shane Watson was from Pakistan. Though I wish he was, so they could take him.

The shocking truth about Shane Watson!! Shane is 100% Pakastani cricketer, 0% Australian.

The answer is, mate, because I want to do you slowly. There has to be a bit of sport in this for all of us. In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go. I want to see those ashen-faced performances; I want more of them. I want to be encouraged. I want to see you squirm.
Shane Watson can't be a Pakistani; he can't even fix his batting technique let alone a match

What the gently caress surely he misunderstood the question. That's incredible.

Two of the first three "Top Ten" moments weren't even cricket.

It was hopelessly apparent that they'd never actually faced the ball machine before, they should have been allowed at least a couple of sighters.

Haha gently caress that was dour stuff in the home run derby. Surely they can afford more than 2 balls per batsman.
Plus the crowd completely dead making it seems worse.

just put the machine back a bit and slow it down. give them pies to hit ffs

i reckon they'll chase this with 1.4 overs to spare.

I havent seen England play since I watched the last Ashes, and I have no idea how they are placed entering the CWC.

How bad is it?

Dunno I think the scorchers are a better bowling unit and weaker batting.

I think they are a better team defending a score.

Plus lousy Smarsh batting.

Best result would be making the semis imo although getting knocked out in group stage by Scotland is more likely.

(Officially they are ranked 1 [that was at the time of the draw back at the end of 2012])
