Depends. Do you like self-flagellation?

I think the most frustrating thing about this is that no matter what we do we just don’t have the ability to beat Australia down under.
There isn’t any combination of players in this country that would make a stable test batting line up.

As in the first 2 Tests, our best chance is currently at the crease. If they both get in on this wicket there is no reason to think why they shouldn't go big but at the same time, if they fall it will be the standard house of cards again most likely.

Perhaps there might be if England's batting coaches were doing anything to help players adapt to the challenges of test cricket when they step up.

Astonished at how often the more informed commentators are picking up on technical deficiencies in the England batsmen and yet the England coaching setup have apparently done nothing to try and alleviate these deficiencies.

Don't need to change the world but IMO it is one of the fundamental tasks of the England coaches to help players transition from county to international cricket. That should clearly involve helping them make technical tweaks that allow them to adapt to test cricket.
