The England camp has been struck by a few cases of the wild shits this week. This might not seem that interesting in itself, but it has allowed us to answer one important question.
Is Luke Wright a batsman, a bowler or simply a blank canvas who doesn’t get injured? Apparently, he’s none of those. He’s actually a blank canvas who doesn’t get the wild shits.
James Tredwell is playing too and the West Indies have dropped Shiv.
An England win is all but guaranteed.

5/134 – The nice men in the white coats have come and put a screen around the horse so as not to frighten the children.

Pah your pessimism Mr Wolf. 160/6 and Wright and Treadwell are at the crease.
An England win is all but guaranteed.
Although, this does of course mean there is a danger of complacency…

..it’s not working, as the children seems very frightened indeed now

Tredwell is skittling them

– Wright plays a sensible innings with England in trouble to give them a slim chance of winning.
– Tredwell takes the first three Windies wickets with everyone else being slogged around the park.
Am I in a parrallel universe?

Alphamonkey – yes I we all are. Ravi Bopara is now taking wickets at the World Cup.
England really have been ridiculous at this World Cup. I don’t care if they get knocked out. I have been entertained.
Shits-and-giggles cricket is surely the way forward.

I’m not sure which is least believable:
1. Bopara getting picked.
2. Bopara being trusted to bowl.
3. Bopara being trusted to bowl IN A POWERPLAY
4. 4 overs, 2 for 4 runs.

In a powerplay. With Keiron Pollard on the crease!

Get Trott on.

steady now. It’s a bit early to be gloating.
March 17, 2011 at 3:29 pm
How is that gloating? This pitch rewards nondescript bowlers.

Apologies Your Majesty – I thought he was in your list of heroes.
I think the only way that this game could be anymore exciting was if I was watching it on Ceefax.

Swaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan!
March 17, 2011 at 4:33 pm
Hahahahaha Ravi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That was marvellous. Well played Tredwell.

I really didn’t appreciate the shits reference, KC. I have only just removed my brown trousers and put on some more sartorially elegant troos.
