17 today thanks zico.

I doubt Bashir will get in as he is coming off the back of 0-115 at five an over against Australia A but you never know with this England set-up.

18 today thanks zico.
Only missed out on Magical Mystery Tour for the Beatles.

16 thanks zico.

The man has always been a total twat.

There is one ray of hope in that Ben Stokes was obviously pissed off with the team's performance. His own captaincy has not helped with the persistent short stuff and never putting anyone at third man either.
The problem is who the hell can you bring in to replace those players who are not up to it?

Oh FFS!
Can you stop trying to make this thread into another tedious argument fest please.
Thank you

Yes, the sandpaper thing was pretty depicable but this England team are every bit as irritiating, arrogant and entitled as the Australian team.

Three TDS up in the first quarter.
Blimey!

Fucking FUCK!!

Lordy!
Australia are doing an England.
Great comeback from Carse after getting battered.

I love the crowd cheering every time Jamie Smith takes the ball without dropping it.
It is what a home crowd do.

Never a pen but I was shocked Mbeuno didn't get it. It would have been overturned so quickly by VAR as it was a clear as day dive. As I said earlier, this is where VAR should be instructing the ref to book players for diving/cheating. It wasn't a case of minimal contact, it was ZERO contact with da...

15 today thanks zico.

A ton for Root in Aus at last.
It is not very bazbally but he could do an Alastair Cook 2010/11 job on Australia and bat them to death if anyone can stay with him...
...and there goes Atkinson.

We look doomed. Wolves, Burnley and West Ham for the drop.

Have to agree. Writing is on the wall.

Good. Hopefully they embrace it rather than fear it.

I expect nothing less than a plague of frogs.

This was England's record ODI innings for years.

I will always remember his vicious cut shot.
The ball certainly stayed hit as it rocketed towards the boundary.

Jack Leach took more first class wickets last season than Will Jacks has taken in his entire career.
No surprise that Somerset's third string spinner hasn't made the team,

16 today thanks zico

The Panthers not being terrible feels weird.
