Netherlands beat England in T20 opener

[Wolverhampton]

You heard of ravi bopara? 4 centuries in his first 6 tests.

One of the first English players ever to get 3 centuries consecutively.

no it was 3 ducks and then 3 centuries.

i still cant believe we lost though, what was they doing putting rob key ahead of dimitri mascheranas. or graham napier - bad memories of him when he played sussex last year.

I really love Broad.

Flintoff pissed off Yuvraj and Broad got hit for six 6's.
Broad said that "England will win the T20 Cup and the Ashes" and they lost the first match!! haha.

Come on Pakistan, please beat England tomorrow!

And then India to win the cup again

[Wolverhampton]

ill eat my hat if the **** (india) retain the world cup.

south africa will.

and pls link me to where broad quotes where says "england WILL win the ashes and T20 world cup" - come on, pls link me to some proof.

and no one cares if broad got hit for sixes off yuvraj, that was like a year ago, is that like the highlight of your life or smt?

you must be a proper indian, support pakistan to beat england? pfft, true indian you are mate.

[Andeeh]

cant believe the west indies beat australia today, terrific performance from gayle.

new zeland beat scotland in a 7/7 match

and it looks like india crushing bangladesh.

[Wolverhampton]

Scotland were unlucky, you the Scottish batsman called Poonia who hit 29 off 15 balls (I think) - well his brother goes to my school, and I know him pretty well, he batted will, I feel so cool that I know somebody who was on tele!

[Geraint]

Chris Gayle is probably the best T20 batsman around. Scotland did well when batting but New Zealand have some big hitters and they moved their 2 best batsmen to the top of the order to get back the runs.

[Andeeh]

did you see his massive 105m six?

class, i didnt like what he said though during tour of england, that he doesnt care if test cricket died out and be replaced by one day forms.

england have to shape up against pakistan tomorrow and this is my team

Bopara
Wright
Napier/Kevin Pietersen - injury doubt
Morgan
Collingwood
Foster
Mascheranas
Swann
Sidebottom - uncertain about if he is suited for 20/20
Broad
Anderson

why are they playing shah as he is terrible at the moment, i agree with 3 front line seemers though to bowl there full allocated overs - makes 12. Swann for spin. Give Mascheranas and collingwood with even a bit of wright, napier and bopara who can all bowl medium pacers.

[Wolverhampton]

I totally agree with your team, I think we should keep Pietersen where he's best at this moment in time - the bench. We need him fit for the ashes, just like Freddy Flintoff, this T20 is not important compared to the ashes and we need our best players ready for then.

I would like to see Napier play tomorrow, it would set him a stage where he could break onto the world scene as a top T20 player.
