  • Intro:

    England coach Ashley Giles reflects on World Twenty20 loss to the Netherlands.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE (English): Ashley Giles, England limited overs coach (on the words he would use to describe the performance):

    "Certainly 'complacency' would have to be one of them. There's no point hiding. And it was embarrassing, you know, and with all due respect to the Dutch because they've played some good cricket this competition."

    SOUNDBITE (English): Ashley Giles, England limited overs coach:

    "Yeah, there's a lot of emotions at the moment and of course we're angry. We're human beings and that sort of performance, when it's your line of work, you should be angry and I understand why the supporters are angry. There's quite a few out here who've come all the way out to Bangladesh to watch us, there's some in our hotel. All we can do is apologise. Apologise to them and apologise to the people watching at home. That isn't, that isn't good. Again, credit to the Dutch, they were good tonight, but we shouldn't be losing like that."
