    Another great ball but the batting today has been disgraceful. No attempt to win it at all. They have been so negative since 11 am at trying to see out a draw that they have lost more wickets than they probably would have done if they had played their usual positive run rate game.

    Agree. Irony is they'll probably lose with a whimper now.

    I think Bairstow can burn his whites after this series, shouldn’t be needing them again.

    Lost the match with our batting on Friday afternoon. 120 light on this pitch.

    It's not the skill it's the mindset. They looked at the total and thought "we can't do it".

    You make a good point it’s the mindset they just can’t seem to hack the pressure at all.

    I always think you're better batting first.

    No problem with the scoring rate in the first session, but a run out is criminal in these circumstances. After lunch, I thought it would be Root ticking things over and hameed playing an anchor role, no idea why hameed didn’t just pad that ball away and make jadeja bowl at him away from the rough.

    ******* dog ****. Yet again this England team manage to royally **** something up! Talk about low expectations! Some of these players are so mentally weak that the Aussies and the Aussie press will take them apart in humiliating fashion.

    Even Root's head has gone with a shot like that.
