    Yes and still playing although not so often. Have played abroad but only on cricket tours. You still donning the whites?

    I haven't because,like many at Hoddesdon,it's hard to get a word in!
    I thought it was Gatting in his 'owning a sports shop in Radlett' phase!

    My last few appearances on the field of play have been as umpire.

    It’s what happens when your eyesight starts to go.

    Do you notice varying levels of garrulosity around the county?

    It’s ok if you have VAR or snicko to bail you out.

    They might serve to highlight one’s poor decision making.

    Guy called Afghan doing well for Afghanistan.

    Reminds me of Arsene Wenger and Wolfgang Wolf in sounding like the club/team they represented!

    WillisWasTheWorst Its making less grammar mistake's thats important

    It was a sad, sad day when Wolfgang Wolf left Wolfsburg.

    Aussies look in ominous form!

    Mind you the way New Zealand have performed might give us hope for the game on Wednesday.

    He changed his name to Afghan!

    Poor, poor Afghanistan.

    They should have beaten India & how on earth did they inflict today’s defeat on themselves?

    Weird decision to promote Naib to captain.

    Weird decisions he is making as captain.

    Anyway, they could really do something in the subcontinent WC in 4 years’ time.

    Stay tuned!

    England and Jason Roy started well - 80 odd off 13 overs.

    Brutal assault by Roy & Bairstow.

    400?

    England letting the sand run through their fingers.

    I’d fancy India chasing 320 or fewer.

    Need Stokes and Buttler to get going ..

    Or Root!

    A nervy afternoon in prospect.

    Expecting a lot of pace off from our boys.

    Should be a winning score............

    Big total. India bowled poorly for the first 25 overs and it looked like 380-400 was on. Blimey there are a lot of Indians here!

    Of course! You’re there!

    Where are you sitting?

    Good start and could have been even better had Root caught Rohit .

    Let's hope it doesn't cost us !

    Rohit eating up balls.

    Not anymore. Very dangerous partnership with Kohli and we don’t seem able to stop the boundaries leaking.
     
  27. RookeryDad

    RookeryDad Squad Player

    Could be a close one although India will need to take risks to go at 9 an over.
     
  28. RookeryDad

    Kohli out!

    Playing Vince as a specialist fielder.

    Canny!

    Great catch by Woakes - getting wickets at vital moments just as India look to get going/.

    Hopefully should do enough but India still have hard hitters in.

    India gave up with 5 overs left. Very odd considering they are pretty much guaranteed to qualify.

    It's coming home !!

    Maybe that’s why they gave up?

    We were playing W Herts in a club match so kept up to date by Neil and then Stuart the window cleaner.
    Saw the last five overs at home and was shocked that India didn't go down fighting.Flimsy finale.

    Disgraceful egotism from Dhoni.

    Thank God Roy is back !
