    Now get off Koeman's Korner, you lot, and come here.

    It's a special place for you. :)

    Blew it with that wasteful bowling mid innings.

    I question the selection of Edwards for t20, he will always go for runs IMO.

    The southern group always seems tough but Kent off to a good start after last week's win.

    Good young squad as well........the saints of the cricket world

    Wood's gone for far more over the 2 matches. Edwards has got good pace and when he gets it right he's very good.

    The better side on the night lost to the best player on the night. Simple as that. T20 can be like that.

    All the seamers went round the park, so I wont be blaming Fidel or Wood. If any blame has to be handed out, it's to the batsmen for throwing some wickets away. After scoring 40-1 off 3 overs, and 61-2 off 6 overs, we should have got to at least 180. We didn't get those middle overs quite right, and for the second game running we didn't cash in during the final two overs. But look, I say if blame has to be handed out for a reason - because actually it doesn't have to be handed out. It's just a case of holding your hands up and saying fair play to Blake. Unlike Carberry, Vince, Shah, he didn't get pick a man out in the deep. Quality knock.

    We'll still qualify. The south group is probably the weakest it has been for years.

    England 62 - 2 trail by 72 runs. KP must be laughing to himself somewhat.

    And who could blame him!! Would like England to get stuffed for the shameful way they have treated KP. The captain has to be a very weak leader not to be able a guy like KP.

    I'm an admirer of KP as a batsman, but he wasn't above getting out early as well. He would have given us a good chance of making a bigger score, but he was not a dead cert.

    If this is the prelude, then the Ashes will be a horror show
