The Ashes 2015

[ancoats]

hahaha cook wanted a 4-1 never going to happen ok we won the ashes but I still think we are a very poor team on flat wickets and still don't have a full time spin bowler playing and we are still bigging up Ali but come on ECB really what are you playing at

we have the ashes in the bag so it should be the players that have been running the water breaks all summer hoping to play a part in the winning ashes 2015 what does it say to players like Adil Rashid who is a full time spin bowler sitting in the stand watching crap from Ali

from the end of this test England need to look at the opening pair and also ian bell must stand down from international cricket jimmy Anderson also needs to think about touring again and a full time spin bowler we have the making of a very good team and we can field a young team that have played a lot of first class cricket already so from sunday the ECB must used the axe big time

out
ian bell
Adam Lyth
jimmy Anderson
Moeen Ali

It's no wonder the Aussies copped so much stick for losing to what is essentially a poor test side.

No settled opening partnership

Middle order relying on Root to get runs

A keeper who can't keep and struggles 9 times out of 10 with the bat

No spinner

Nobody who can take wickets when the ball isn't swinging

From the 1st hour on the first day i could tell they weren't up for this match! Ashes won jobs done they cant be arsed

Darren Lehmann will definitely be able to catch the Liverpool game again...

The way it's looking, he may be able to catch the Cardiff/Wolves game yet!

Lyth and Buttler have been diabolical.

Agree, Buttler for has disappointed me more I thought he was going to smash the ball to all parts but looks like he's gone into his shell his place could be under threat now

What a bizarre series. England's bowlers won it for them. Australia's middle order (and bowling) lost it for them.

Can't find the stats otherwise I'd screenshot it, but I think I just heard on Sky Sports News, Buttler is averaging less than Lyth in this series; pretty staggering if true.

He is, he's been shit thought he would play his own game but every time I've watched him bat this series he just trying to survive
