Will England ever consider one day cricket seriously?

Will England ever consider one day cricket seriously?I mean take a look at their history...world cup'96,world cup'99,world cup' 2003,2007,bilateral one day series',3 nation,4 nation tournaments in the past...they are hopeless in one day cricket.And the current one day series against Australia is no different. It seems that only Ashes matter to them..such a negative attitude and such a boring team.

Only Ashes matters to them. Everything else is preparation for Ashes. They will not achieve much unless they learn that there is Cricket outside Ashes. That's when they will start winning the Ashes more often.

And they only remember two Ashes 2005 and 2009. And they never talk about 2007 ashes series. :giggle:

Who are you to say they don't take their cricket seriously ?

England is never going to be a force in one day cricket.

Only when England are winning any cricket match do they take it seriously.There is an incredible lethargy and ignorance in the ECB and the media to the shorter game.Every game in this ODI series has been a sell out so far.In my view the fans are being treated rather poorly.
