Hope your watching Anderson.thats how you bowl on a bad pitch.finn in for next test and maybe some batsnan who plays for surrey.oh whats his name again?
Alex Hales deserves a chance. Lyth has been scoring for fun for Yorkshire. Maybe nerves are getting the better of him. He definitely isn't 'shit' though.

a lot of players can do it at county level but don't have "it" for test cricket.
One of the most frustrating players in recent years for England because you know the man is second to none when he's on form . I doubt they will drop him yet.
We have used 5 openers in the last four years alongside cook.. Compton Root Carberry Robson Lyth
We need some continuity here I'd stick with Lyth.. can't keep dropping a player after two or three bad matches.. players need to play without worrying about their place in the side!!

I agree with continuity, if they appear to have the ability & character.
Lyth appears to have neither at Test level & I'm far from convinced on Ballance.
Would have took 1-1 after 2 tests (looking deadly likely). Could well have been 2 zip had Clarke not changed his beloved tails for the toss, but it's the fine margins.

Lyth & Ballance have to go !
3 down again for less than 50. It's happened in the last 8 innings, or 7 out of the last 8 innings. It's no coincidence.

Agree about Ballance.
48-4
Lyth, Ballance & Bell absolutely effin pathetic.
They don't have the bottle and I seriously would drop all 3.
How will England come back from this farce in the 3rd Test ?
