Thanking my lucky stars I can't watch this turns out the 1st innings was a only a practice run for the real collapse,3 wickets for one run ! absolute carnage
Bye bye little urn
I'd have rather joe come out and give his take on the situation both his main strike bowlers had broke through before lunch within a couple of overs of the new ball bein taken jimmy had bowled just 3 overs for 2 runs and was swinging the ball all over it defies all logic not to keep him and broady on after lunch,typical that they skirt round the issue by asking the bowler who had no say in it instead of the captain who made the mystifying decision

Chuff knows how England will go on when the Aussies get on a wicket wi genuine pace Bully.Ya can just imagine the hammer an England skipper other than our Joe wudda got if the crazy decision over Jimmy &Broad can't ya? Some posters do have double standards mi thinks. UTCB
Englands 2nd string bowlers just aren't good enough why we didn't take some genuine pace with us is another mystifying decision pace is always king down under plunkett should have gone another problem is Lyon has upped his game and is a 1st class spinner now Ali just isn't in the same league Bairstow is nullified at 7 he gets about 20 mins with someone who can bat then has to start playin shots before the tail gets out (if you blinked you'd have missed that today) really missing stokes but can't argue with his omission. Poor joe has been sent to do a job with inferior tools and anybody who has tried that knows how it ends up
Not even mentioned the main batsmen stoneman did well yesterday to survive but we've handed the Aussie bowlers the initiative and given them the confidence to really attack us for the rest of the series missed a great chance to lay a marker and set the tone for the series,I fear the die has been cast

If we don't win at Adelaide I can see us losing 0-5 again,JB should swop places in the batting order with Moeen I reckon,and can anyone tell me the point of Jake Ball even being in the squad is,never mind the team?

Hello mr angry of Yorkshire I'm in agreement with you,I think we may have taken the brakes off the juggernaut
Yours mr pessimistic
10 wkt defeat the result of poor captaincy,poor battin and the bowlin not bein anywhere near good enuff,hopefully all will improve dramatically for the next test.Could someone explain why our Joe's captaincy decisions gets away wi no criticism from our resident Cricket "experts" please.It seems there was nowt in't Jonny's "headbutt"incident just the media tryin to cause trouble,what a suprise.

How long does these clueless coppers take to investigate the Ben Stokes incident?,get him on the next plane over,get Mark Wood into the team as well,we need to fight fire with fire,they send bouncers down,we should be sending twice the number of bouncers down,big test in Adelaide,win that it's ***** or I fear the worst,and send Jake Ball home and replace him with Liam Plunkett
