It’s easy to bowl when the other team’s batsmen are shit.

The batsmen aren’t shit though.

Bairstow, Malan, Root, Butler and Stokes are some of the best ODI batsmen ever. They have all won multiple limited over world cups.

So either the problem is the coaching, or the fact that the bowlers shipping an average of 350 is killing the batsmen before they get to the crease.

Ok they’ve batted really well then, all 4 matches. Maybe like you they believe their own publicity. One dimensional and only know one way to play, and it’s stopped working, big time

They play t20 shots in a 50 over game and wonder why they’re all out for 170 in 22 overs

I think the same, my mate disagrees and says they improve their game by taking shots (batsmen) from one form, and adapting them to other forms.....I think Buttler is the best example of looking like you can't bowl to him in 20/20, way out of his depth for tests, and hasn't a clue how he should bat between the two in odi's.
 
Not much else to say really other than the World Cup for England is over, Let's hope big changes are ahead for the ODI team including management, coaching, captain, It has gone stale and smelly, it has become a Dad's Army of old men and brook,
