Cricket World Cup

Wednesday, April 18, 2007

Well as usual England fail to achieve in a World Cup and so are now due to come home. Once again, regardless of the sport, we now have the usual inquest into why we didn't do as well as everyone expected. I think there are two key issues:
  • Grassroots level sport is in need of much improvement in the United Kingdom. The way in which we scout and develop youngsters in sport needs to be challenged.
  • We seem unable to achieve at the big tournaments. Much has been said about the super long length of the Cricket World Cup, particulary given they had already been on a long tour in the Southern Hemisphere, but they are highly paid professionals employed to do a jon, and it does seem that we always bottle it in the end.

Cricket is great - a time to sit and chill out in the sunshine with a drink and call it 'sport'. You have obviously missed the point of it! LOL,
