morgan to captain the english side, ironic on many levels.

The starting time has been cut back with half an hour to 09:15 GMT.

Bad news to start with though. I'm afraid that the rain is sweeping in over Castle Avenue and the players have had to flee the field without completing their warm-ups.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Half an hour added, so it's back to the original time.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Just cut the deadline a bit short, since the match has just started.

Dernbach is my captain and I selected him based on form. James Taylor was my other choice.

A lot of people have Morgan or Trott as captain, so I need them to fail.

 

[jacobfelix]

Match started and I see G.Onions who is in my team isnt playing. One down already

 

[ZexyZahid]

It may help you, since your bowler can't end up in negative points.

 

[jacobfelix]

Match reduced to 42 over/side....It's advantage for England 'A'

Final standings after the ODI: Ire 117/8 (23.0 ov, GH Dockrell 5*, AR Cusack 6*, SR Patel 1/12) - Match over | Live Scorecard | ESPN Cricinfo

My gamble with Dernbach nearly paid off. Looking back, I now regret that I didn't make Trott and Morgan my bonus players. 20 points more would have given a second place. My hopes were on James Taylor, but he failed.
