Very worrying to see us play 2 very average spinners like this. Just shows we won't stand a chance in Bangladesh on spin friendly wickets.

Even the medium pacers are proving hard to get away.

Doherty bowling 10 overs for 28 is embarrassing!

[Cedrictoad]

Surely there is a match winning hundred out there for Morgan today.

Jos needs to just rotate the strike for the next 3-4 overs and then launch

[Cedrictoad]

Bresnan to come in at number 3 in the next game?

Bumble was brilliant on this - "three an over, never spun a ball"

[Cedrictoad]

He never looked like turning one - "nude nuts"

Tredders isn't exactly ripping it a mile either but the Aussies are milking him nicely.

Hum, I did record this game and planned to watch it before my nets afternoon but on reading this it sounds like the game is as bad as all series so I think I might just skip it

[Cedrictoad]

Yeah, I would probably give it a miss....

Unless there is a massive comeback from England... which looks particularly unlikely

I called stokes at 3. Unfortunately the way he batted, he'd have been better off at 8.

Not enough runs, left to much pressure on buttler and Morgan to perform at the end.

Poor from England with the bat again.

[Cedrictoad]

It appears that bowling is not going terribly well for England either... just as I am typing Bopara bowled Clarke!

Biggest come back since Lazarus?

[Manormanic]

worrying that our best batsman was picked for his bowling and our best bowler picked for his batting...

[Manormanic]

incidentally, Christian's catch to dismiss Morgan - how was that any different to Buttler's overturned catch to dismiss WArner in the first game?

I thought the first and only camera angle used by the third umpire made it look out because it was front on, but the angles showed later made it look quite clearly a catch.

I think that was the debate that buttler and Clarke was having,

Clarke said he's caught it and you should except his word.
Buttler points out that it didn't happen when he caught it.



Clarke looks out of touch, it's funny that he isn't being questioned on his form but cook is. Is it cos there winning your not noticing?

22, 24, 23, 10, 6*, 10, 6, 43, 17, 34. That's 197 runs in 10 innings at 21.7

Very little is questioned when winning.. Just look at England in the summer!
