Convincing win today in 2nd odi, Colly gets a ton and Trott 87

 

[Willlow]

I cant believe the change in Colly. 12 months ago he was struggling to reach the boundary and would take 2 hours to get 20 runs, now he is smashing them everywhere!

I agree, I was one of his fiercest critics and I really thought his time as an England player should come to an end, but he has been a revelation in recent matches and deserves every credit for knuckling down and proving the doubters wrong.

I also think that the batting line up is much stronger with the emergence of the likes of Trott and Morgan providing much needed stability and reliability which must give the likes of Colly more confidence to attack and be aggressive.

I agree, although it is a bit embarassing when neither them are actually english :icon_lol:

 

[Tamworth Fox]

I must admit I did like watching Collingwoods innings; he knew exactly when to attack. Went through the gears very professionally.

Just get rid of the hopeless Mahmood and we could have the makings of a decent one day side.

 

[enderby fox]

Interesting to see what the side will be. I expect Swann to come back into the side for Rashid today.

Other than that i think Mahmood will get another go unless Plunkett is thrown the ball. I know who i'd rather have. Plunkett for me until Broad is availabale next game.

 

[Jeff]

Plunkett for me until Broad is availabale next game.

Isn't Broad available for this one?

De Villiers gone, big psychological edge that could be.
