England vs Windies ODI

[Tamworth Fox]

Blimey... England win a couple of ODI matches and still no threads ? :icon_lol:

In all seriousness, i've watched the last couple of ODI and England seemed to have improved all be it vs a very poor/unmotivated Windies team.

I'm expecting to hear Gayle resign as captain after this series (my prediction)

So... no KP and most the team get a few runs, any link in that?

Sorry, I meant after the 20-20 World Cup.

Viv Richards and the legends from the 60's, 70's, and 80's must be mortified with what they are seeing.
Chris Gayle is a very entertaining batsman, but he takes 'laid back' and ' captaincy' to a whole different level.
Having witnessed some of Englands incredible thrashings by the Windies in previous decades, i find it depressing to watch a team that used to fill cricket grounds, just going through the motions.
I'm normally enthusiastic about an England win, but its impossible to gain much satisfaction out of hammering a side that couldnt seem to give a flyin f.

Absolutely right. This pathetic tour has brought international cricket into disrepute.

I'm afraid any progress that people thought the Windies might be making last winter has been thrown away. I appreciate that they didn't want this tour and to be honest to be asked to come here as about third choice and freeze in April/May was a rotten ask - but they are expected to play like professional international cricketers and they didn't. Gayle is quite unsuited to be an international captain and I don't see them doing much until he is replaced by someone prepared to be a bit more serious.

I think BB and Redditch have pretty much summed up why there have been no threads. And no point bigging up the one day form when we all know we will get battered in the 2020 World Cup!
