About: Bungle in the jungle

An Entity of Type: person, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Bungle in the jungle is an epithet, given to a cricket match played on 18 November 2003. It was an "unmitigated disaster" for England. Played at the Dambulla stadium, in the Sri Lankan jungle, this One Day International is notable for the dismissal of the England cricket team for just 88 runs. In the 477 One day internationals played by England, this aggregate was only two runs more than their worst display. Sri Lanka achieved the 89 runs required to win in just 13.5 of their permitted 50 overs, for the loss of no wickets and a "comprehensive victory". In Wisden's words, England were "battered". The disastrous England score was attributed to "a flurry of misjudgments, over-ambition, and world-class fielding".
