How embarrassing is it for England cricket team to get tamed by what they call 'dibbly-dobblers' ?

haha!
The 60mph dibbly-dobblers were too hard to handle i guess.
England all-out for 98 against dibbly-dobblers. lmao!

KP should be ready with some more of these excuses as he will need plenty of them during the next few weeks.

You are spot on , this sort of situation happens much too often and all we are fed is a load of rubbish from players and management

All this tosh about learning lessons has been going on for years . It is a shame that having worked so hard between 2001 and 2005 when they reached a peak and won the ashes , the over the top celebrations told me that the players thought that was it they were No 1

Well to get to No 1 means staying there for a while

There are too many players who are automatic picks and favoured players of the manager . My main target is Prior , he is a good county batsman and average wicket keeper , not test class in either department . What has Foster done except break his arm at a very inopportune moment . Sure Geraint Jones filled in very well for a period but they should have gone back to Foster . Harmison is hit or miss depending on how he feels though hopefully he has at last come to his senses . He and his family only has their comfortable life style because of cricket and he should have been much more committed

Lets see how this Indian tour progresses , but if it is abject failure are we really going to allow Moores to continue , probably one of the excuses will be it would be wrong to change mannagemnt before the Ashes

Even though the result of a practice match doesn't mean much, it must have been embarrassing to the Brits. I'm sure Dhoni will take advantage of it.

England'll lose the ODI & T series.

Yeah it was a big victory for Mumbai team,they destroyed English teams reputation and their thoughts on Indian bowlers.

222/7 and bowled them out in 98 runs.

The defeat itself is not an embarrassment. But the total what they put up is a shame. But don't count on that. They would have learnt their lesson and will up their guard. That was a wake-up call for England.

I feel KP might have opened too many campaigns before the match and it might have gone to his head. Poor fellow jumped the gun and put his foot in the mouth.

Not at all really, probably more embarrasing to be bowled out for 76 in a test match at home on a batting track, mind you April was a long time ago....
