    they'll set us 450 to win, with an hour left to play tomorrow, and we'll be skittled out for about 180...

    Yep something like that AFKA. My Dad texted last night to see how I thought England would get on after the good start. I told him that we would be all out before he had got up in the morning cos this team hasnt got the bollocks.

    I doubt there will be much point to the last 2 test but I'd drop Jones and bring in Read. Neither Anderson or Mahmood have done anything with the ball so I'd also go for another specialist batsman instead of the fifth bowler and have Freddie bat lower down the order.

    G Jones' test match batting over the past 12 months. It reads, 5 1 3 11* 4 19 6 18 16 8 19 33 1 10 0 = Average 11.

    Rothka - Didn't realise Jones recent average was that poor. Makes sad reading for a bloke who is being picked for his batting ahead of his keeping skills.

    had that horrible feeling again this morning reading the papers. all those great headlines but you've left the house knowing we've been crucified again and the hope was all in vain.
