After finding myself as Englands number 1 fan today at a 4 nations karate comp the wife was taking part in I missed todays games 

Karate was good thou.. England beat Wales, Scotland and Ireland.

After todays game is it fair to say England are going to have their hands full with India's spinners come the test series?

I was amused to see Harbhajan picking up four wickets after playing for a year.

Batting second on a dryish wicket , when playing spin is not your best strength was surely a way to lose a game after winning the toss.

It was a change to see Harbhajan flighting the ball beautifully.

I think that aside from the fact that, on the night, India played very well and England did not. I think that a large factor was the team selection. I don't see why Bresnan is in the team at all, I don't think he's performed well enough recently and especially shouldn't be in T20 team. Patel would've added balance to the team with both improved batting and his spin would've helped, taking the pace off definitely seemed the key.

I think Bresnan played to give him some game time....this match didn't mean anything after all. I'm certain Patel will be back in for the next match.

Should broad be in the team is more my question

Bar being captain I would prefer Bresnan to play with Patel as well

I didn't see his bowling but taking four wickets on your comeback against world champions is a big task

It is rubbish to say "match did not mean anything". It still is a international game (not a warm-up) and dents the record - and lowest T20 total for England.

England were outclassed in all 3 forms and there was a silly broad moment brought in for good measure

Where is jeet when you need him

[Six Sixes Cricket]

Samuels bat from yesterday. Unusual scuff sheet?

I have given up arguing about Broad being in, he doesn't deserve to be as far as I'm concerned (and I'm also talking about in test as well, when you look at his stats in detail) but as long as he's captain his place is set in stone, would much rather see someone who can bowl intelligently and also reliably bat, like Woakes, maybe Trego?

[Number4]

Surely England can find a better captain than Broad... You need half a brain to captain aN international team

[Village Trundler]

What a farce this tournament is.... The best teams in each group all now in the one group so 2 of them will be eliminated before the finals and allow 2 of the second ranked teams in.

Rediculous.
