It’s absolutely rotten and I cannot wait to see the back of every single person involved in whatever this has been.

Injuries or not, imagine.

Bazball has always been marketing buzzword thing that masks over the technical and tactical short comings of English Test Cricket and that isn’t just about the players, thats about the coaching and the selection of players like Pope and Carse etc.

Imagine if you’d played Slug for the first 4 tests aswell as being able to use Hazlewood and Cummins. I think both sides can ‘imagine’ a lot that things like this that wouldn’t have changed the overall result of the series.

A fine player in the making. Looks to get after bowlers but isn’t in a rush to throw his stumps at the ball and give it away. We look to have found a test batsman here.

Oh this is solid. It makes me feel safe.

Yep. Starc has had him 3 times and Cummins has had him twice. Nesser twice and Richardson once a piece and his other innings hes got in when the ball had died and the wicket was less lively and made 100+ Red. He’s working with fucking idiots, the man is a treasure.

and stop neglecting County Cricket that produces good test cricketers instead of picking players based on not a lot like Jacob Bethall and putting loads of hype and pressure on him to be some sort of Wunderkind.

I sort of hope the worst happens. I’ve never been a fan of whatever Bazzball is, we’ve never won enough playing that way to justify the hype and hysteria around how ‘revolutionary’ it’s supposed to be. So if we get slaughtered here then I’m all for it if it means we can play proper test cricket 1/2

He’s not winning anything except what I think will be an innings defeat in what will certainly be his last Ashes* test in Australia.

*He’ll probably play in the one off 150th anniversary Day/Night at the MCG.

Joe Root must be fucking livid with the era he has been playing in.

He definitely invented the modern War Economy.

I watched his LBC interview and when he said “I’m in charge of DOGE” - I just imagined the Question Time audience laughing at him.

It’s flat and not a new ball anymore. They’ll try and put on as many as they can before close and the new ball tomorrow. This is another place they’ve beaten us, tactically.
January 5, 2026 at 5:19 AM
That shot he played about 10 minutes ago where he just twatted to Mid-wicket made me very ill.

But fair doos. Hes knuckled down.

It’s both good, cool as fuck and bad at the same time.

Imagine how surprised Zack Crawley would have been to see him walking on.

Tea-Watchman.

What the fuck have we done to Test Cricket?
December 27, 2025 at 3:51 AM
This deck is a shit tip. If England will probably be chasing close to 200. I don’t fancy that at all.
