This St Kitts line up is so poor, they could even lose to Englands ODI team.

Why could the 20 man training squad not have some exposure here ?

how far from Grenada to St.Kitts ?  :-\

48 - 6 after 20

England should complain... ;D

First ball from Adil Rashid a rank leg stump long hop, batsman couldnt decide whether to hit for 4 or 6, so went for 4

this is humiliating for the WICB

Why?

I don't think the team was picked by the WICB.

Leewards cricket is pathetic and instead of including some "quality" players they go with a set of useless players.

Dem like it so.

Blimey, 58/9. Rashid now in the wickets. Based on the XI, it looks like England will possibly go with Cook, Trott, Ballance, Bell, Root, Buttler, Stokes, Rashid, Jordan, Broad, Anderson for the first Test.

WICB made the schedule


CCC XI

And Tredwell finishes things up. 58 all out.

I have a feeling the WICB "schedule" only included the official test matches.

England may well have spoken to the WICB about these "warm up" games but I really don't think the WICB picked the team.

But if the WICB picked the XI then they are beyond stupid.

This sounds more like silly folks in St Kitts thinking they could "compete" against England.
