Morgan cry baby

[SK_IH]

its eng commentators who cry mostly for better balance between bat n ball,when such a pitch is provided they star crying agn

[Iconoclast]

Complete and utter bakwas excuse.

 

Mofo talking like it was a square turner. Hafeez and Imad were just darting it.

 

Pak pacers took 7 wickets, spinners only got 1.

 

GTFO Leprechaun.

“I don't think there was any home advantage. We knew that we were going to play on a used wicket at some stage in this tournament, and we found out the other day that today was going to be on a used wicket,”

It's an ICC tournament not a home series for you !

England lost because they didn't have any plans against Pakistan. Contrary Pakistan clearly bowled with a plan and intent.Maybe England expected Pakistan to surrender meekly.

England have only one plan to win matches, lapaybaazi on flat tracks, they can't win matches on tracks which require actual skill to score runs

i would call it a choke because a much inferior side like sl almost beat pak if not for their bad fielding,OTOH eng neither competed while batting nor bowling,over bowled the short ball.

They would have made a semi decent match out of it if they have had good bowling. Even Srilankan bowlers did bowl good against his poor Pakistani batting.

it was a 260+ kind of wicket... they were too eager to blast pak out of the milky way...

As I said on another thread, the only solution/punishment would be a few weeks playing club cricket up north. Then they'd see what a difficult pitch is and how to deal with it, it dig in and gerron with it

[chewy]

Morgan has a point, but England batsmen didn't adapt, in middle overs they got bogged down by either trying to smash boundaries or playing dots, didn't look for 1s and 2s

250 to 280 would have been competitive 

[CoverDrive]

That makes you look very bad and your trashes claim to play more fearless cricket. Fearless cricket is not just bashing up opposition on flat track in useless ODIs. Fearless cricket is what Samuels played in two of those t20 finals under big pressure.

^ What point, Each pitch has been used twice. Either first time or second time, the pitch has helped bowlers. There has been no change in that rule of tourney

since when was a ICC tournament a home advantage? Do they actually tailor the pitch for the team hosting the event?

but they were not. There was barely any intent from England batsmen. Stokes didn't hit a single boundary. It was pressure.

Only the Edgebaston Pitch has been good..

 

Both Oval & Cardiff pitches appear more like Sub-Continental pitches...

If it wasn't Morgan it would have been golden boy Rooty spouting the same nonsense.
