England are a rubbish team!

England were rubbish last night - there seemed to be no Plan B, not a single idea to contain New Zealand during it's opening onslaught. After his fantastic last over in Napier, even one over of medium paced yorkers from Luke Wright would have slowed down McCullum and Ryder.

They can't complain about decisions not going their way - it looked to me as though Daniel Flynn got an inside edge when he was given out.

Perhaps England's dual captaincy has robbed the team of the quick tactical changes you need to make in limited overs cricket - the reason New Zealand has punched above it's weight in world cricket has been it's ability to upset stronger teams rhythm, and then go for the jugular when things go New Zealand's way.

England need to learn, and learn quickly - otherwise they'll stay the opposite of New Zealand. Able to win test series, but not win one-day matches.
