Mate, you guys produce some of the most brilliant cricketers, but the ruling cricket authorities play the politics of cricket in a fashion that is just not cricket.

Good start for England - 70/0 off 15 overs. Bell looking very assured though dropped on 23 by Martyn. Loser of this game goes out of the tourney in the first round! Who would have thought that could be Australia?

England 125/5 after 30 and stuttering. Yardy out - he's never looked a batsman. Collingwood in and immediately looking impressive - England's last hope?

Just a poor OD team - big hitters failed yet again, weak players in who shouldn't be there and no real threat to come from the bowlers.

He plays quite well for Sussex!

How did England qualify for a champions trophy in one day cricket. We have never been any good at the game - whereas Sri Lanka had to qualify yet they have been world champions

If they are a good spin bowler the future is bright for them ,its just a shame that Shane Warne gave the shortened game away.

Do you think it doesn't have a future? There are always periods in a ODI game when you need to slow the run rate down and a good spin bowler does that well, taking the pace off the ball.

Mushtaq ahmed, Anil Kumble, Saqlain Mushtaq, Monty & many more do you think these are not good spinners ?i think ODI cricket has changed now and it will be in a diffrent form in next few years, No life for spinners....yes they can play only if they can do a bit with bat as well. Other wise in next few years there will be no spinners in ODI games

If they can take wickets pretty regular and are a decent fielder then spinners do have a future because wicket taking is a better asset to have than just being an average batter ,you still need players to get wickets .
The pitches used will also dictate what bowlers to use .
