    Hopefully this is the last time we see Burns in an England shirt . He lasted longer than I expected

    they definitely have a plan for burns - he does walk accross way too much, and starc's angle and swing will catch him out.
    "bowl to him"

    is there anything nicer than a hameed cover drive?

    Think we've missed the major point about the Burns' dismissal. The Aussies took a catch in the slips.

    No one will ever come close to Ian Bell

    He is a quality player who, as I keep saying, just needs that big score to give him the confidence that he does truly belong on this stage

    12-1 after 3 overs.

    Reminder that Australia were 11-1 after 10.

    So we're 7 overs ahead of the game!

    If burns was right handed he would be playing village cricket, He offers nothing

    Might actually be the kindest thing to do to drop Burns.

    Certainly needs to happen, no idea if Crawley will so any better but its worth a go.

    I'd seriously be asking Burns to pay for his own flight and accomodation on these tours!

    And then he does something like that to undermine that confidence!!!!

    Will our openers look more or less comfortable than Starc and Neser, do we think?...

    Predictions on England score at close of play ? 
    35-3.
    I was too optimistic.

    You all know I'm I'm fan of Burns and I've defended him as the least worst option we've had in the last couple of years. But...

    His head is completely gone, getting bowled behind his legs first ball of the series set the tone and he's followed up with dropped catches, midfield, overthrown and looking completely lost with the bat. He needs to be taken out the firing line.

    That yard further up the pitch that the Aussies are landing the bowl on is the difference between us and them. They are not worried about being driven for runs. They want us to do so.

    The Aussies don't even need to bowl well to get us out. On the other hand, we need at least 2 chances to get them out.

    Just bring them home after this test. 

    We don’t deserve to be given a 5 test series.

    I agree.  We will make 601 in our innings and bowl them out for 80.

    We are almost as predictable as we are pathetic.

    A game of which Aussie batsman will England's 1st innings total surpass. I'll start the bidding with Alex Carey, I know i'm a dreamer

    Don't think I've seen a team care less about a major sporting event. We are a joke.
