This stems from England’s obsession with playing one day players in test matches. Surely there must be better than this in the county game or are lads just not taking up cricket anymore due to the poor money at county level.
That has to be one of England worst ever batting displays, given the conditions.
It's come full circle almost.
A few years ago we were shoehorning test match players into the one day side. Now we're doing the opposite. One day players with first class averages of 30 are being called up into the test team which is partly why we have arguably the worst batting line-up in living memory.
