Anyone been watching the cricket? Bit disappointed with the results so far but I guess with the number of injuries England are contending with they have a bit of an excuse.
Nice to see Harmison back on form now. Also, what do you reckon about Monty Panesar being included in the squad? He proved he could give some power behind the bat at the final test and he normally has a great economy whenever he bowls, which is more essential then getting wickets in an ODI in my opinion.
So what do you think about England's performance at the moment?

Well England had an excellent start but were greatly out batted and Sri Lanka deserve full credit. Shame they couldn't avoid the whitewash: I bet they could have done with the confidence boost.
Well, as the commentators said, there is no one really sticking around with the bat. 30 and 40 scores are okay but when the Sri Lankans are capable of 100s, someone needs to match it.
On a slightly related note, the Twenty20 cup has been good so far. First game on Sky broke a lot of records and yesterdays game went to the last ball.

My friends and I call him Ian Bellfornought.
Come on, atleast he didn't go for a duck this time. Shame he can't speed up his run rate though when he does get going.
Edit - whoo go Jonesy. :-P

Almost 10 runs needed per over now. Would be more than amazing if Dalrymple and Jonesy could pull it off...
He apparently seems to prefer batting at 4. They were talking about it in commentary.
Damn, there goes Strauss. It's gonna be difficult now, unless Bell can speed up his run rate and build a nice partnership.
I thought it is about the same, they also seem to have more all-rounders playing in this ODI than the last, which I'd have thought would definitely benefit them. Seems strange having Strauss batting at number four, any reason for that? Or are they still just experimenting a bit?
I think England might be in trouble if they lose a couple of wickets. They seem to have a weaker batting lineup than usual.
