Stumps.......203-3...............Smith 92 n.o.........nicely poised Overton's injury not as serious as first thought
Only rain will save them, and that's unlikely.............Aussies will look for, and have the momentum for the whitewash
yup heads are down and you can tell. england are very very flaky like that. things not going their way and there hasn't been that much digging in.
called it but then it was a bit obvious. they will be ground to paste in next two games now. Prob 2 innings defeats. Welcome to captaincy root. this is the real stuff. You failed with bat, so did cook and thats par for course away from home.
Paul Clement: Swansea sack manager after less than a year in charge NOW WE ARE GOING TO PLAY SWANSEA AFTER APPOINTING A NEW MANAGER
Can't really blame Paul Clement for Swansea's failings this season. I would blame the greedy owners for not reinvesting the money they received in the summer. They got big money for Sigurdson and Lorente, yet replaced them with Tom Carroll and Tammy Abraham. A player they already had in the reserves and a loan player. Let's not forget they only just survived last season with Sigurdson and Lorente, so they where pretty much doomed from the start of the season. Selling your best players isn't the problem for teams down the bottom at the end of every season, it's the owners of these clubs pocketing most of the cash and trying to replace them on the cheap. You'll never survive in the PL if you continue to do that.
New owners there a huge let down. 80% of turnover on wages too so that's scary if they can't bounce back up.
