I’ll be intrigued to see how England do that. I think that a fair number of the current squad have probably gone over the hill, but sentimentality and the desire to keep a good team spirit will likely see many of them retained. That’s now two home Ashes series where England have failed to win, and they‘ll now need to work on building a bowling unit for the next trip to Australia.Agreed Jim. As stated, once we washed, ironed and wore our mojo we were there.
Just shows how important every Test is.
We can improve too, no doubting that.

5 Tests in 46 days again with the IPL only starting afterwards. It’s going to be terribly difficult winning there.Winning in India would be a fantastic accomplishment.

They get better the more cricket they play.
Whenever they have a break from playing, the Bazball hype seems to overtake them and they do stupid things just to show how Bazball they are.
Players like Root, Brook, Ali all reverted to something close to their natural games as the series went on and they were much better for it.
It will be fascinating to see how Bazball fares against the likes of Ashwin and Jadeja in testing conditions.That'll be tough. Conditions that we're not used to.

Great result today. England have clearly been the dominant team in this series. Should have won this easily.
Asked if he thought 2- 2 was a fair result . Ponting the narrowed eyed ignorant prick said he did, as he thought England deserved their comeback. Completely missing the fact that the question was surely about whether Australia deserved to draw the series ?
