Guess what? They aren’t expecting the detainees to be there that long so the cost of a year is irrelevant. And if you aren’t feeding them or providing healthcare, its cheap. Sadly, they expect these people to be deported or dead long before that.

Yes, that does make sense…and I was just watching the highlights that don’t show everything. I also agree “wanting it more” doesn’t win games per se, but it can help with mental collapse in the face of adversity.
concordian.bsky.social (@concordian.bsky.social) reply parent
Without a doubt the batting was an issue, but watching the highlights, it seemed that IND fielded with more aggression. Every wicket taken was a visible “F-you” from the fielder, versus the ENG “jolly good, well done” amongst team mates. Maybe that’s not a fair assessment?
