    If I was a betting man I wouldn’t put any money on us going an hour without a further loss

    England are backing the wrong horse if they think Sibley is the future. He was ok in South Africa against county class bowlers but has been found out against proper international bowlers. I don't like to criticise but the Joe Root , Chris Silverwood leadership is average to dull at best.

    They all get picked for their shot making abilities. Without sounding like a whinging Boycott, I want to see openers who can leave. Lads who can play a forward defensive and who can bat long enough to soften and scuff up a new cherry.
    I'm an ex bowler, after I've bowled and been in the field a day or more I want to get my feet up for the same amount of time.

    I’d like to claim credit for that but I can always
    So confidently predict the sun will set in around 5 hours. Stupid waste of a review. Root useless at saying no

    they looked far inferior in technique to their counterparts, pretty much down to 11.

    T20 and all the limited overs stuff totally nailed the ability to create proper test batsmen.

    New Zealand are miles better than us , it's embarrassing really how bad we are. Ashley Giles & Chris Silverwood have got rid of the selectors so basically they've created a jobs for the boys club.

    I won’t disagree. What I will state is many were clamouring for batsmen who play shots last week.
