England top rider were extremely poor.

But from 5 down, I'm not sure Smith captained well and let England bakc in it a tad.

They now aren't batting very well. I still believe aus will win this one, but they are showing how poor an odi side they re while doing it.

They don't seem to have huge confidence in this format.

Really I pressed with how england look up for this! Although it’s amazing really given how (according to an ex player) dead rubbers don’t mean anything to players or anyone

I think he has a point teams that have won  take  there foot off the  matches  though  provide an opportunity for players who have failed  not sure of there place.

is that really the case, or is it just when your top orders gameplan is to attack and keep attacking regardless that occasionally you're going to get knocked over pretty cheaply.

True but if you’re relying on luck and keep pulling a SA and choke when it matters you’ll rarely win a comp.. which at pro level is the whole point right ?

You don’t need to change the players but they might need to be able to adapt ??? Or are we really happy with a team who can only play on roads ?

not sure i agree with this given what happened in the ashes and the fact englands only change in this game was because of injury.

we hardly rested our players for the first dead rubber (the top order rested themselves though)

Is it really so much to do with flat tracks? I think just the way the play now, looking for 350 for as long as possible then adjusting after if it's all going badly wrong, maybe they need to be more flexible earlier and better at analysing what a good score is, but they're still a far better and more consistent side than we have seen before.

They won't catch us this time! Not this time! They haven't spotted us! No, they're all snoring in their bunks! Or, you know what? They're drinking at the bar, celebrating our sinking! Not yet, my friends. Not yet!

I tend to agree. The confidence in the current ODI side is unparalleled as well, can you imagine England getting near 200 after being 8/5 pre 2015WC?

Also making nearly 300 from the position they were in last game, few years ago we’d have settled for 250 and making a game of it.
