Serves England right for preparing that pitch. Even if they'd won the toss and posted a high score first up - they'd never have got 20 Aussie wickets on that wicket. We all know England are a long way from being a good team and that Bayliss and Farbrace have a lot of work to do, so at least give the bowling unit who are capable are getting wickets in England a chance. The Australians were too complacent in Cardiff, they werent at Lords and won't be again. I'd drop Ballance for Bairstow, as he seems shot.
Here's a good article on the 2nd test by Boycott. A lot of it is what we've said on this thread ... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/cr...a.-It-is-shameful-to-bat-way-England-did.html
