I'd love to be positive, but this could get painful. Aussie bowlers under lights with a new ball and their tails up after whacking us around the park! 😧

Neser and Starc making our bowling attack, supposedly our biggest strength, look futile. It’s gonna be a longer series than we thought

Oh dear. Burns out. He’s going to need a big 2nd innings score to keep his place ahead of Crawley for the 3rd test.

I think there are three at least who need to go for the next game - Burns, Buttler and Woakes are all being shown up here.

Who would you replace them with ? Crawley for burns ? Bairstow for butler? Remember foakes has gone home and wood for woakes?

This has innings defeat written all over it. Root needs to score at least 150.

Hadn't realised Foakes had gone home because he did feature in my masterplan.  :(

That being the case, I'd be going Crawley for Burns (mentally shot, can't catch) and Wood and Leach for Woakes and whoever needs a rest.  As keeper/bats, I'd go Bairstow over Buttler but that forgets that the reasons goldenballs gets away with his iron gloves is because he brings a semblance of order to the team management group so that one is a toucher call.

Completely agree.

Burns goes for Crawley.....Wood for Woakes but not sure I can see Leach coming back, we need a spinner but he was smashed last test and what has it done to his confidence? 

If I was a betting man I would lump on a 5-0 to the Aussies

I hope Malan and Root do what they did last time and properly stick at it through 2+ sessions, highly doubtful but if it doesn't happen then we are doomed.
