Mitchell Starc should have proved to Peter Moores and Co that bowling slow half track shite at the end of the innings does not work, get it in the block hole, they can't score when it's there and more than often they get out

England v Sri Lanka, Wellington (Westpac Stadium)

Scorecard

Oh dear! England have played 3, lost 3 on this ground. Bowled out for 89, 130 and 123. Doh

Good start, but now the wickets are going down. Bell just gone for 49.

Eng 101-3 (20.2)

Lost again quite heavily despite posting a target of over 300. What is going wrong?
We are now hoping that none of our remaining matches get rained off, having lost to the other proper cricket nations in the group, one of the minnows could easily slip through.
Gary Ballance appears to be getting the scape goat mantle as well, which is a bit harsh. He came into the tournament with zero preparation, having been injured. He must be allowed time to bat himself into form in the next couple of matches.

Graves apparently wants Pieterson back, don't know why, he isn't going to bowl sides out.

You're not wrong there themaclad. It doesn't matter how many runs we get when our bowlers are near as damn it bowling soft underarm stuff that sits up nicely to be smashed to all parts the ground.

AB only got 24 this time but SA still score over 400. The Irish bowlers on the receiving end now.

SA 411-4 (50)

And collapsing quickly
