    But according to you trophies count, so what's the point been number 1 if you don't win anything?

    So they won a trophy involving 2 teams meaning they are the best team in the world?

    To be the best in to the world you have to win a lot of those tournaments

    What really matters is the Ashes and we're going to win them. Today would have been a nice bonus but it just didn't happen for us.

    Michael Carberry is best opener in England at the moment and Samit Patel should be in the one day side as an all rounder but mentally they werent up to it today 130 should have been achieved comfortably.

    Test cricket is the bread and butter. I'd much rather we were a good test team rather than a 50 over and T20 team.

    Thankfully we are. Cricket is certainly a sport where we can be proud of our national team.

    We were unfortunate today, had Morgan and Bopara managed to stay in we'd have won that relatively easily. Onward and upwards.

    I would rather him have been out for 1, like he should have been. Nicked it and caught behind, umpire didn't give it.
