The rest should give their fees back in utter disgrace. :evil:
Those two have played well in this series. Stokes will get England man of the series.

A load of fours and sixes from Stokes and Broad.
Entertaining, at least, for ten minutes.

Cook's captaincy has been clueless at times. He should resign.
Flower should go too.
No room for sentiment after that humiliation.

Cook will be better for this experience, I don't see anyone else who i would want as Captain really.

Utter shite.

Ridiculous itinerary not to have a game between 3rd & 4th Tests. Bairstow has hardly held a bat on this tour let alone kept wicket & Rankin etc had no time in the middle. Thank God I cam home for Xmas Adelaide & Perth were bad enough but the batting performance's in Melbourne & Sydney have actually got worse!

Prior & Root will be back in June, hopefully, but if htey aint gonna play Panesar on a turner at Sydney that could be the last of him. Onions may get a recall as well, he was on standy if Anderson got injured. Carberry, Tremlett, Bresnan, Peitersen, Panesar & Rankin may never play for England again

I hope we make changes, but nothing radical, we need to find our best eleven and give that team a chance to gel and play together.

There was a time, years ago now, I'd be looking forward to the ODI series.
