Holland beat England

Not “England lose to Holland”.  Holland beat England.

Because that is what they did.  Outplayed and outfought.

Congratulations to Holland, who deserved to win.

We did predict that England would not be at their best against Holland.  But to lose it on an overthrow from the last ball is something else.  Why not restrict Holland to the single and take your chances in the SuperOver?  Utter stupidity.

England now face the prospect of going home, so to speak, after just two matches of their home tournament.  Can we focus on the Ashes now?  After all, isn’t Twenty20 just a bit of hit and giggle?
