I think I need to sit down, I'm feeling shaky and overcome with shock.
Thank God for Saj Mahmood and Kevin Pietersen.

I hate to bring you down from Cloud9, but the only match that mattered for England in the Champions Trophy tournament was lost.
With the Ashes series coming up, all the Champions Trophy preparation of the England team should have been focused on making sure thay played well against Australia. Had this been done, it would have given them the necessary confidence boost, for them to feel that they have a chance of retaining the Ashes.
Instead of which, the players and fans of English cricket are filled with despondency, dread and foreboding at the prospect of being mullered 5-0 by Australia in the upcoming Ashes series.

When England met west Indies yesterday, it was a matter of prestige for them to win the match to keep their morale high for the coming Ashes series. though West Indies put up a very good score, England rose to the Challenge and won. I thought West Indies werfe in a position to post a total much more than they put on board. However, due to ver cautious batting, they failed to achieve more than 273. Wekll done England. You kept your pride.
