I thought the on field umpires were very good. The third umpires were shit the whole tour.

Reading about Archer and mainly his shoulder injury it doesn’t look good for his long term test match career..

Shoulder or elbow?

Shoulder he has a cortisone injection on it to ease the pain while he was India.. at his age it doesn’t look good and why he will probably quit test cricket in the next 18 months

Not good. His elbow has had multiple injections recently too. That’s why I asked.

I agree - hadn't heard of a shoulder problem as well (and discounting fishbowl injuries).

Gives me the impression of overuse after insufficient strength training beforehand.
