Haven't seen anything from yesterday's ODI. How bad were we? Toying with the idea of going to Headingley for the final game. Started off well, fell apart when Raina came in and started smashing us about, Jordan absolutely fell apart in the middle of their innings and bowled an 11 bowl over, and the batting just never got going.

Raina was a cut above, Jordan/Stokes a cut below.
Don't think our batting is as much of a problem as being made out, having a slowish top 3/4 isn't that unusual nowadays. I think it's our bowling and the balance of the team that's the issue. Drop Stokes for the foreseeable future, bring Bopara back, and drop Bell down the order in place of Morgan who you bring up the order. Better I reckon.
Similar to you Delexo I'm pondering going to the Trent Bridge ODI this week, not sure though.

Jordan was horrific yesterday. That over with 5/6 wides was just ridiculous.
I don't think the batting is that much of a problem but i'd still like to see Roy or Taylor come in for Cook.

Another awful performance, we need more one day specialists in the team. I love Anderson but I don't think he really performs at a high enough level in ODI's. I'd also like to see Cook and Root dropped for Roy and Taylor but that's not going to happen. The world cup is gonna be so bad, I'd fancy Bangladesh to beat us at the moment.

Played against Phil Tufnell yesterday. 20/20 match between a side from my club and a side put together by the president of our club. We won by 2 wickets with 2 balls to spare, I finished on 10 not out to see us home after we'd collapsed not long after I went in.
Tuffers still turns it a fair amount, wasn't easy batting with him bowling at one end and a minor counties opening bowler at the other end.
