England tend to end up in the most difficult groups in sport.

Remember when we beat Germany 5-1 in the qualifying groups for the football world cup. If we had of come 2nd in that group we would have had the same easy World cup groups and subsequent easy matches that Germany had. They got to the final - us, we got the winners (Brazil) early on.

Now the cricket we get, South Africa, India (the 2 favorites) and West Indies, compared to Pakistan who get Ireland, Sri Lanka and New Zealand.

Oh well!!!!!!! Let's be positive. Maybe we can beat West Indies (if there isn't a storm, ie gale force)
