ODI. Scotland 371 - 5 Scotland won by 6 runs. Normal service resumed. Chucked away from unloseable positions several times. What an embarrassing shower of s***e. Perhaps we should send Scotland to Australia instead? In the one day format there are bound to be some surprises. A bit of a lottery sometimes when people start slogging. England should have been cleverer and stopped their runs rather than going for wickets.

Perhaps we should send Scotland to Australia instead? The humiliations this overpaid team are willing to inflict upon us comes with no limits. In reality it's poor selection. Wood shouldn't play anymore....he's meant to be quick yet in reality he's just nippy. Why on earth is Willey still in this team? Billings is a 20/20 player at best. Plunkett is more useful with the bat than he is with the ball.....but at 34 that's no crime....he's an old man in bowling terms.

Wasn't really England's best one day eleven in all fairness. Should have picked all youngsters - then there would have been something to gain from the game. Had England won would that have helped anything - other than Scottish cricket's coffers? Stop playing 'joke' games and stop promoting crap sides like Scotland and Ireland - unless we play fringe players and youngsters, or even a second eleven. Nobody else does.

We were never in an unloseable position, though I must say I thought we'd be okay when it was 27 required from 33 after Plunkett hit that 6. The bowling was simply appalling but we actually lost it in the fielding as Scotland saved a number of balls from going for boundaries (Budge particularly) while we had more than a few fumbles. It was a bit like when Sven f***ed about against Australia and it bites England on the arse, to be recalled forever more. Buttler in instead of Billings and we'd have walked it. Woakes, Stokes and Curran were all missed from the bowling line up. The only change to the team to play Australia today, let's see what difference he makes.

Doesn't look like we'll need the extra batting power judging by the way the Aussies are going. 191-6 with 10 overs to go.

Be superb banter to lose to Scotland and then easily beat the Aussies in the space of a few days.

Very good. You've got to have a cheeky dig even if the team aren't. Root and Morgan making it look easy at the moment.

Shouldn't have put my breath on it. Lost 3 very cheap wickets since then and have 2 new batsmen at the crease!

Putting the Aussies to the sword in the 3rd ODI! 181-1 off 22 overs and the only wicket so far was a run out.
