AN EARLY EXIT FOR THE ENGLISH SIDE

'When it rains, it pours'.  Yesterday, England crashed out of the 2015 Cricket World Cup, whiles Bangladesh cruised to the next round.   From the beginning of the tournament England seemed bothered, by who knows what?  They are not unified as most teams looks in this world cup.  Former player, Kevin Pietersen was to blame for all the bad echo in the team.  Pietersen was dumped from the England set-up early last year, after some career in which he played 104 Test and scored 23 centuries.- sourced ICC cricket.com.(website)-

The 'outspoken' Pietersen, didn't waste time to hammer England's squad, posted a tweet on his account: ''I just cannot believe this! But, well done to Bangladesh you deserve it!

This is England's 3rd time exit, and 89th time in the group stages in five World Cups.
