Is England a glorified county team.

only ali fight to the finish

YES

who cares what england is..save I like one or 2 of the young players..Root..Ali.  Bell is alright..steady..gives something almost all the time

* If the pommies are a glorified county, at least they are still ranked #5.

* The WI are ranked #8.

* The ENG/WI series in 2015 will be a good one----a team of equals.

if deh fi'ah Gibson/Buttsy..and either hire no head coach or bring back Logie..it would be a team of equals.

the current team leadership is the craps.  they do crazy things like pik 5 bowlers just like that..out of the blue.. dropping match ready Gabriel just as he is ready to flow for slow poke Holder.

anyhow it might be a good thing in the long run...Gibson Buttsy doing crap and west indies loose.  they might get themselves fi'ahed after all > > > >

If one counts ENG as a glorified county team (ranked ICC#5)......how does one classify WI ? :-\ ::yawn:: :-[ :

Krish,


Surely that is not a serious question?

Dat easy.

England is a Division 1 county team.

WI are close to the bottom of Division 2.

Well not just Ali, even Root played well. The thing is, they lost - but it was close. Same with the first match. It was far from a thrashing. It's alright - stuff like that happens.

Let's see how they do vs India.
