Re: Cricket
l saw a picture earlier of his bruises after the day of cricket and he must have been in terrible pain because most people certainly would have been.

Re: Cricket
Sadly the umpires called them off due to bad light.

Re: Cricket
Well after nearly pulling off an unlikely win in the first test, England only just failed to hang on for what would have been an amazing draw in the second. Poor first innings let them down.

Re: Cricket
I like Jos Buttler as a cricketer, but hes not a test player. Let him concentrate on what hes good at and let someone else have a go. I think this team is close to being an excellent team but just need to be more consistent

Re: Cricket
He is young enough to improve, Ian Bell is fast becoming the Wayne Rooney of the test team.

Re: Cricket
As Cooky said if we had a couple more overs to score the runs in the first test the series would now be level.

Regardless of his Man Utd form, Rooney is at least the national side's all time top scorer and Bell is never going to be anywhere near that. 
Bell is a good player who should have been dropped a while back to give him a chance to recover his form and confidence. Having said that he's probably had his best years for England so maybe it's time to move on.
