Either we peaked too soon in Cardiff, or the Aussies under-estimated us and were overconfident. Seems like it is going to be a long series after all,,,,,,
Well that was an absolute pile of bollocks. So much for the "new England", seems we are still led by Captain Clueless especially when things don't go according to the pre-arranged dressing room plans. Looks like it could turn into a long, hard summer...
The worry was always if we had a bowling attack good enough to take 20 Australian wickets, the juries still out but it doesn't look good with Anderson not finding his form yet. Smith and Rogers especially are animals! I predicted 1-3, don't think I'll be far off, unfortunately.
Mate you'd think we were the home side the way we bowled.. Worrying signs for the whole side. We got the **** kicked out us 1st test then kicked the **** out of you's 2nd test.. Well more of a KO Can't wait for the next one!
Cricket is a funny one for me. I'm pleased when we win, but couldn't give much of a **** when we lose.
I would go with this team for the next test: Cook Lyth Root KP Bairstow Stokes Buttler Ali Wood Broad Anderson I'd give Lyth another go but Ballance and Bell have to be dropped IMO.
Not bad but I'd drop Lyth as well, he's a ****ing liability. We deffo need Rashid in & we can't have KP can we seeing as he's not in the squad & has been ostricised.
