6 for.

At the risk of upsetting the mockers, think we might have this now

Complete lack of dignity there.

Pathetic performance throughout the series and heads need to roll. Right back to the drawing board

So one wicket away from a clean sweep, and yet I don’t feel we played that well.
Our bowlers did, but it wasn’t a batsman’s tour.

Australia’s last wicket partnership has now outscored England’s first in this series.

English should get Novak Djokovic to open their batting. It took the Aussies two weeks to get him out.

Ah the old IPL excuse. They were not a lot better at the time when their players were the only ones that were not playing IPL. As if Australia (or any other cricket nation) do not have a bunch of players playing in the IPL either.

I assume it's part of a wider context of over resourcing pyjama format?

Rassie and Temba doing the business now after a sluggish start.

A bit of topic :

Maxwell has just gone mad and scored 154 of 64 in the Big Bash. Crazy numbers. AB de Villiers scored 149 of 44 against West Indies.

Van Dussen has really improved his game since he moved away from DP bats....
