The idiocy of English batsmen once again never fails to amaze me......

The short ball is causing all sorts of trouble so lets get out the way and leave it alone...nope, lets try and smash it all over the place, then wonder why another wicket goes.

Broad, Plunkett, Anderson - 117 runs needed....start the car, this ones nearly over :(
One day i will think of something clever to write here.......This however is not that day

FFS.......

If my local league team played like this, we would get hammered and dropped for being so stupid....last 5 wkts to the short ball, please someone work it out, u are test players for gods sake......

Might not be overly confident anymore :(

Squad picked for the 3rd test, time for new i hear u shout...nope al the same except no Prior (still the best wktkeeper batman we have by miles) due to injury

Why do we not rotate our players, or even pick the most inform players...oh yes...central contracts, ofc

Heres hoping for a bounce back

prior might do what haddin did tbh have a year or so off to let a younger player have a taste for a while then take his spot back at full fitness and be that counter attacking wicket keeper batsman and then retire in a few years np OR just retire now lol idk

Love cricket. Gonna spend some time reading through this thread for sure

EDIT: I'll probably take my time and enjoy it over the next few weeks. Theres probably a fair few articles and videos posted to have a look at as well.

Just skipped over a couple of pages and i'm loving the commentary as well. Look forward to getting through some of it
