Country who's weather can kill you, pretty much every animal on land can kill and if you go in the water to cool off.... stuff will kill you. Hard as nails lol
Too many of the supposed top order batsman just don't have the technique to play in Oz. No point picking players who excel in England or Sub Continent if they can't deal with Oz conditions. Same with pace bowlers. ....they aren't pacey enough as a whole lol. I can't see it ever changing while the team is selected not taking this into consideration. I don't know but how many English young players go out to Australia to play regional cricket?
once root went the others caved. woakes Alli Bairstow. not enough have scored in either matches now really. as I said yesterday 3 50s needed. just get in and score a few ffs. but no. incapable.
tbh its already done. its to avoid a whitewash cos if we don't win this we will totally give up and meekly and the whitewash to them.
I don't give a **** who wins the Ashes, but I do love Test cricket and the Ashes are always fiercely contested. But looking at it from England's point of view, this Test is massive. If they can win this 3rd Test (regardless of history for a minute) then its 2-1 down with two to play, and England only need a draw to retain. This series is not over yet.
Ahh, fair do's...............my dad was Scouse, and my mums Welsh. I was born in the Channel Islands and have a British passport. But I don't consider myself English in any way, shape or form.
