i appreciate that, but if he'd have played a proper shot he would have got some runs and he can do damage

They won't catch us this time! Not this time! They haven't spotted us! No, they're all snoring in their bunks! Or, you know what? They're drinking at the bar, celebrating our sinking! Not yet, my friends. Not yet!

England need a more innovative wicketkeeping batsman for the end of the innings like Jos Buttler. Prior is too correct in his stroke play

Trott should probably also open, he just doesn't have the power to bat at the end even when he's set. There's a reason he has so many 50's and no 100's in this WC.

If you pull it off, he was just left looking stupid and handed some momentum to the sri lankans.

bob willis is a moron, trott's innings was exactly what was required given the situation, and he consistently scores runs at a reasonable enough rate

Given the pitch wasn't easy to score on his innings could prove invaluable

He is a liability in the powerplay though.

He tried something and it didn't come off. Something I bet everyone on this forum has done...

fair point, however surely swann was put in then to bash a quick few runs, not try a fancy shot that hasnt been that successful for the proper batsmen this game so far
