Not even a gutsy 8 from Eyelids Pattinson could save England.
Although he wasn't given a big oppurunity to save them from 11.
Looking at some of the shoddy work in front of him, perhaps thrwoing him up the order as a crap watchman may have worked.
I'll take you through his innings.
He started with a leave off the bat that dribbled towards slip.
When he tried to whip one through mid wicket, but at the last minute saw a gap between gully and point and slapped it there for a boundary.
There was a cherry on his edge, but perhaps that was from the nets.
After that he decided to actually whip one through the legside for 2.
Then he played out the rest of the over well, defending one the front foot, in a style that could only be referred to as the dandenong straight bat.
He added to his tally with a last minute scoop through cover for 2.
Then he'd had enough.
A well constructed 8.
England looked rubbish.
But sometimes that is when teams bowl their best.www.cricketwithballs.com
