There won't be a crowd, bud. Unless people actually pitch up to make their displeasure felt. That would be interesting and not entirely impossible

I'd like to see Afghanistan bowl on this pitch tomorrow morning to Australia just to see what the fuck is going on and if they could play these bowlers any better. They're bowling really well. We're letting them bowl well, but still it's impressive.

2004 they still had plenty of decent players knocking around they could have made peace with. This is a waaay worse situation
Was going to say, 2004 we had a lot of players still around the system and playing who could have been selected and weren't.

Just had a look now. That is beyond grim. As a fact a full strength Namibia will beat us as well, who bizarrely are ranked below USA.

We're in Oman, Nepal, PNG and USA territory. Its not far off.
It only goes to 20th spot. Let me tell you Jersey could probably put out a half decent side, I know a couple of decent county and minor county players that have Jersey roots.
