Well that was utterly pathetic, ashes all but over on this showing.

just think of exciting run chase i cant wait

Couldn't even make it to lunch

 

[cleavers]

That went well.

The irony of this series is that when they lose 5-0 it will kill Bazball and set test cricket back 10 years.

It won’t set test cricket back 10 years. There is a balance and the way we played pre Covid under root when we won in South Africa was the right way to play imo. This is just stupid brain dead cricket. It’s not entertaining it’s embarrassing

Well that was a pathetic 2nd half to that innings after a good start.

They’re only doing short stuff because it’s working.

If England scraped 2 brain cells together and just left the ball for 4 overs then the bowlers would have given up, it’s too tiring to do for an extended spell.

Perhaps. We'll never know if they would have persisted with it had Lyon continued. Still think the replacement rules are outdated.

England have certainly shown poor poor discipline. Can't see them turning this around.

Carry on with this approach and we'll lose 5-0.

Australia won't need Lyon.
