Geoffrey always said the best way to play fast bowling was from the non strikers end. Nobody has a plan to tip and run.

Absolutely no need to play at that

Start the tuk tuk
What a sad pitiful display this one has been Our bowlers had to grind to get them out for near 300 and then we’re 3 down with nothing on the board anyway ![]() |

Why would any kid become a bowler at cricket?
Knowing no fooker can bat? |

Now for Moeen to cheer everyone up

All the time we have below average batting at the top of the order, we will always collapse at the start of the innings. Root should open the batting, because he virtually does that in every innings anyway. The bowlers get you back into the game and within an hour, its a wasted effort.

Question is how do you address the opening problem?
I am not sure there is a current solution but if an opening batsman doesn’t know how to leave particularly he comes from England then you hav3 a serious issue. In Aus you can even leave in length. Indians until recently did not have fast bowlers to practise against. To see them knock off a hundred run opening partnership on the High Veldt yesterday was a joy to behold. They were magnificent against an attack that included Rabada, Ngidi and a tall left handed called Marco Jansen who can also bowl 90mph. Add Nortje and that is possibly better than India and just behind Aussie in Not sure where England go from here |

SA and Australia have the best fast bowlers in the world
But India have shocked me recently, theyve even learned to play our conditions ![]() |

Everyone used to laugh at Boycott even team members…
Then the money flooded into the short game where emphasis is on scoring Now you got people bemoaning the death of 5 day cricket Well we hardly see 5 days, and very few draws unless there’s weather You can’t have both You either score quickly or nobody wants to know |

Sadly test cricket is probably on its last legs
They cant fill grounds anymore but fill them for one day and T20 games |

By:
be 9 defeats out of 12 for england this. yes all against difficult opposition but even so the level of basic (in)competence in the batting especially is breathtaking. don't know how silverwood or any of the batting coaches could object if they were given the old heave ho

By:
I would see Liam Livingstone given a go with the right tutelage. He has the right application and work effic. I think he could learn the long game quite quickly.
