England are going home after the bombs last night. spewing they wont lose the onedayers 7 nil and tests 2 nil

The events in Mumbai are not something to be taken lightly. England doing the right thing in leaving. Hopefully there are no more lives lost in India as a result of the current situation.

dont take my comments that way. of coarse the bombs are bad. all i was saying is that it would have been good to see the poms get smashed with the ashes closing in fast

Fair enough. I wasn't so much taking what you said the wrong way i could just see this opening up into a thread that was very distasteful.

So it appears as though England are using a nightwatchman to protect the number 7 batsman That is unless Anderson is geniunley batting at 7 which simply couldn't be the case surely.

Not too happy with the lack of coverage on FOX. Has the BCCI tried to get the execs to giftwrap their balls as part of the rights deal? Last night we had ******* Poker on while the Poms were doing battle against India. **** sake the novelty has worn off watching Poker. Put the ******* Cricket on you dipshits.

its on setanta sports - not sure weather fox sports didnt bid or whether setanta get first choice.

It was on while I was in Thailand. Super Sports 2!

Agree REB. Poker has done it's dash and needs to be dealt out.

What about celebrity poker? How boring is that?

Give me Poms battling the Punjab's any day.
