The bowlers being let down by awful catching again. Baristow didn't go for one and Cook dropped one I would have been confident about taking.

Cook looks like a rabbit in the headlights. Think it says it all about his confidence levels with his fielding this morning, and that rubs off on the rest of the team.
Is is being played in Perth? The last test was 2-3am start.
Broad only bowls two overs, including a dropped catch, and gets taken out of the attack. Root gets brought into the attack ahead of Panesar. What the f..k is Cook thinking?
It's in Melbourne at the MCG.
3rd text was in Perth.
I must admit I am totally amazed at the outcome of this series. Not just for the fact that we've lost, but that no-one, absolutely no-one, has played well (actually, I'll exclude Broad from that).
I know some were confident of an English series win before we went, and others were more cautious, but I can't believe that anyone would have predicted the total shambles we have witnessed. So many players out of touch, which has then led to a lack of confidence and constantly under pressure. The squad selection has been very poor; taking Tremlett, Finn and Rankin who won't get picked.
The next couple of years will need to be spent rebuilding a younger, hungrier team. Maybe Flower isn't the man for the future
Can't keep up with times, dates
Is there that much in time zone in OZ because last one I watched it started at 2.30am.

Perth is the only test venue in this series on the west of Australia. The other 4... Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney are over the east side.
