Konate looks a lost soul, Kerkez is still a kid (and Andy Robertson must play) and there's a rotating game by game filling in at right back. Apart from that, Liverpool's defence is sound! Salah's post game quotes don't help, and I can't believe how far the champions have fallen.

And so quickly.

Yep, perfect summation. I've written about both teams extensively since Sandpapergate and the Aussies continue to be an ultra professional team of belligerent winners and England, a reckless team overmatched and outclassed by a REAL team missing Lyon, Cummins, Hazlewood and Khawaja.

Test cricket is a more nuanced game, you cannot play the same way as you do in a one day game and hope to come away with a result.
Its about digging in an picking off runs with the loose balls, that was amateur hour by the England batters & they got mullered because of it.

The ball that got Smith? Sure was.

But England's day. Game on tomorrow!
