Ah!
Merci mon ami - (uttered in a Patois accent so as to confuse the T)

I feel sorry for Carbs. The top 4 must be really firing if he can't get a game.

And if England want to take the punt of getting a really big score then Morgan has to come in earlier (I mean 1 or 2 down, not 3 for 17)

Why indeed is Carbs still here if they won't give him another go?

Fark it, they might as well just play this side.

Carberry
Bell
Bopara
Ballance
Morgan
Stokes
Buttler
Woakes
Jordan
Broad
Briggs

Give them all a go. Although the squad is just appalling!

It can't get any worse, and give Morgan a dart at skippering and see if he can get a spark out of the team!

To give Ian Bell massages.

So when Ian Ron eventually pulls up stumps who will be the butt of your jokes?  

Whichever fatted up joker doesn't deserve to be in the team. There's quite a few, so it could be one of many.

Rankin's out with a pulled hamstring. Well, that's dealt our chances a mortal blow   

Sure it isn't a pulled heartstring?

Get that lightweight giant away from my side.

HO, HO, HO!

agree that Cook shd get a break, Broad should too, Bresnan's bowling continues to leave much to be desired and maybe he needs a break too...Bairstow shd also get the gloves back...

That was a sweet, corny answer.

Bailey looks set to miss Friday's game through injury so there's now a captaincy quandary.

Would have to be either Smith or Wade. This HAS to be Englands best chance to avoid the whitewash.

Isn't Johnson the VC?

Would YOU let Johnson captain?

I nearly fell off my chair when I heard Midge was made Beetle's deputy. But the selectors have made their bed.

Smith would seem one obvious choice given he is captain of the Sydney Sixers in the Massive Wank. Or Lark, who has captained the Renegades and is Beetle's deputy in the Aus T20 squad.

Would Midge even want to be the captain?

Fleas is in town and available ...and Pup isnt in the dressing room to choke

Meh - we let Twatto captain a Test. Nothing can cheap the role more than that.
