England Cricket Series | Moose | BBC |

For England's friendly against Sri Lanka tomorrow at the rose bowl there is some slight chance of some rain. However if there is any rain that will stop the match then the ECB are willing to give money back to the first 100 people.

Can I purchase a ticket please?

Yes, for £15. But you can add another person for JUST £5 EXTRA!

So that would be 2 tickets for England vs Sri Lanka for just £20!!!!!

The squad for the test match tomorrow will be the same except from 1 replacement. Anderson will be replacing Finn. Which means Finn will be taking part in the T20 clash at Lords between the Middlesex Panthers and the Sussex Sharks.

Nice to see the ECB back!

Also congratulations to England and Sussex on there victories. I have brought my tickets and can not wait for the match.

I've got a ticket for your next match Moose

The match is tomorrow.

And we can also announce that there is no more tickets left for this match. However there is still some for the remaining matches.

Also ticket 876 has also won the raffle, where he will win a signed England shirt by all the players. To claim this, please come to the shop during Lunch where we will present you with your prize. There will be 5 raffle's taking place during this match so stay tuned where you could be the lucky winner.

England have won there first match against the West Indies.

Boooo. Go Swann.

Swann is injured, therefore Monty was in the team.

I'm disappointed.

I know fuck all about Cricket tbh, too confusing for me, and boring.

West Indies have now made it 1-1 in the series after beating England by an Innings at 147 runs. Get you tickets now as we expect it to be a sell out.

AND ENGLAND HAVE WON THE SERIES.

Boo

Remaining fixtures for 2012

South Africa vs England: June - August
2 Test matches
3 ODI's
1 T20

India vs England October - November
4 Test matches
2 ODI's

All the matches I have missed will go down as a win to the other team however this will not go towards the world rankings as the other teams who aren't playing against England haven't had there match results recorded.

Since the South Africa tour only has 1 month left with still 6 matches to play, I will have the first test match on medium difficulty so it doesn't take as long then all the other matches will be resume on hard difficulty.

The squad remains unchanged from the first test match, however due to Twenty20 finals day being between the last ODI and the first T20 match, we will allow all of the players on international duty the chance to take part for there counties in finals day and replacements will be named in due course.

England squad:
AJ Strauss (captain, Middlesex),
JM Anderson (Lancashire),
IR Bell (Warwickshire),
RS Bopara (Essex),
TT Bresnan (Yorkshire),
SCJ Broad (Nottinghamshire),
AN Cook (Essex),
E Morgan (Middlesex),
ST Finn (Middlesex),
MS Panesar (Sussex),
SR Patel (Nottinghamshire),
KP Pietersen (Surrey),
MJ Prior (Sussex),
GP Swann (Nottinghamshire),
R Sidebottom (Yorkshire),
IJL Trott (Warwickshire)


The first test match between England and South Africa will be on the 3rd August being played at the Probiz county cricket ground which will be the first international match to take part in this prestigous ground with tickets also now sold out.

Tickets purchased for all the previous matches will be eligible for a refund.

Monty Panesar will miss the rest of the series against South Africa due to an incident that took place in training earlier. His replacement will be announced at 1830.


Will probably play the match before 3rd August as it's pointless waiting to play it when I have to fit in other matches. I could also post results of the T20 finals day if I have enough time although due to it not being an England match and the counties not being on the game which would mean I would have to replace the names of the players to those taking part in finals day It might not happen.
