Any self respecting cricket fan will have found himself talking at work, most probably by the Water Cooler, about England’s recent toils against the West Indies.  After a shocking batting collapse that saw the team being bowled out for a pitiful 51 runs, this meaning they lost the match by an innings and 23 runs.  With the recent crisis about Pietersen’s captaincy and the fallout that led to him resigning his position, this was the last England needed.  The team seems to be in turmoil, and unless changes are made quickly supporters are predicting a return to the dark times where it seemed England could hardly win a match during the late 90’s.  It has been quite a startling descent since the glory of winning the Ashes in 2005, since then the team haven’t ever managed to quite recapture that scintilating form.
