You got the wickets at a better average than Jimmy (28.4) and just the small added bonus of 5200 runs!

Poor shot. Glad Cook had a good laugh about it - he should know a poor shot when he sees one.

I think that might be a safe declaration....just. Wouldn't have been surprised to see Cook want 475, but an attacking decision by him at least to get them in before tea.

It's funny, I'm not even worried about Australia, there really isn't any question we're going to get spanked. My big concern is losing at home to New Zealand, then to Pakistan in the Autumn. In fact, you can trace back England's demise to when we last played Pakistan in the UAE. That tour was...

Don't get me wrong, the issue isn't arguing that Carberry, Compton or Robson were excellent international opening bats, Robson probably the most fragile of the 3, the discussion is whether they should have all been cast aside so quickly. Carberry has basically been judged solely on 5 test...

Agree. Carberry was unlucky a couple times too, and looked more resilient against the Aussie attack. He actually finished England's 2nd highest scorer in that series on 281 runs, only 13 behind KP. Cook got 246... Carberry basically played the 5 test Ashes series and was then dropped despite...

I think they've been too quick with Carberry, Compton and Robson. It's not look Cook's performances have been any better, and yet they've all been cast aside. Lyth I suppose just failed to nail his place with just the one 50 against SA for the Lions at the turn of the year. I agree with you on...

The Kiwi's will soften us up first, the Aussies will smash us, we then play Pakistan who will kick us while we're down, and finally just the minor inconvenience of AB De Villiers and his mob at the end of the year. Nothing to worry about!

Is it pay on the gate?
