England tour of SA, ODI series, Feb 3-14

[Aidan11]

Just under.

[Aidan11]

SA win the toss and they've put us in to bat.

[Aidan11]

Broad is back.

[backfootpunch]

Broad is back.

anyone is preferable to chris jordan

broad should never have been in the squad though, should be in cotton wool to prolong his test career as long as possible

[dan08]

Appalling start.

[Aidan11]

Roy gone.

[budgetmeansbudget]

Roy gone.

Another unconvincing display.

We're giving him plenty of opportunities but I don't think he's got what it takes at this level.

[dan08]

Might as well move onto the decider.

[Gingerfinch]

I don't mind having one inconsistent opener who will now and again score a quick 70 or even 100. If Hales can continue his form them we have a decent opening pair.

Might as well move onto the decider.

Or on to the T20.

[backfootpunch]

Lots of shots hit straight to the fielders so far

South Africa have bowled lots of wide balls that have gone unpunished

[budgetmeansbudget]

I don't mind having one inconsistent opener who will now and again score a quick 70 or even 100. If Hales can continue his form them we have a decent opening pair.

They're both inconsistent though, but I can see more potential in Hales.

[budgetmeansbudget]

The all out aggressive England from a year ago has gone a bit cautious.

[Aidan11]

BRING BACK COOK!


Sorry. A moment of madness there. I promise it won't happen again.

[dan08]

Root looks awful today.
