And I will add Championship point.
I can hear a rather rotund lady belting out a ditty tune.

He's actually scored the most runs in Tests this year. A double ton against India in India (first batsman to do so since 2010), 180-odd in an innings in Sri Lanka (a tough place to bat for an Englishman) and scored hundreds in 3 consecutive matches against India at home(India has the 2nd or 3rd best pace bowling line-up in Tests). Again, no joke to score 10k Test runs.
I'm actually being jovial but from a slightly peeved stance.
It is a joke to collapse like a chocolate shithouse with a hot tin roof.

Nice try! Perhaps I should've looked at it from a jovial perspective.

If we're doing serious selections from people in Australia:
- Rory Burns
- Haseeb Hameed, Zak Crawley or Jonny Bairstow, don't care
- Dawid Malan
- Joe Root
- Ben Stokes
- I'd bring in Vince, but it'll be Ollie Pope
- Jonny Bairstow or Jos Buttler, unless Ben Foakes is still there?
- Dom Bess
- Ollie Robinson
- Mark Wood
- Saqib Mahmood

Bold move for a team that can't bat dropping the third highest run scorer and only player to get to double figures in every innings.
No he isn't, just gripping those straws too tightly.
I don't think it makes a blind bit of difference.
At the moment it helps keep me sane either that or allow the England middle order to banjos to slap a cows arse.Nice try! Perhaps I should've looked at it from a jovial perspective.

We've had two spankings and currently looking at trousers down for a third and fourth. Just not good.

He's just adding that for comedy effect, we're not taking into account the Australians are always fully pumped and ready to tear us a new one every time we play at HMP AustralasiaBold move for a team that can't bat dropping the third highest run scorer and only player to get to double figures in every innings.
I admire the enthusiasm but the 'I can pick a better line up' analysis should be put to bed due to Australia being on their game, who ever you pick will just add to the misery (and hurt).
The bigger question is, why does English cricket go into lame mode when we feel were are a better side than we actually are).

Anyone who has seen England play in 2021 would have seen this coming.

Rory Burns is still, somehow, mind-blowingly, England's second-best batter this year.
Very bold of you indeed to assume that you're more aware of what I'm posting than I am.
Very very bold of you to continue assuming you're more aware of what I'm posting than I am.
Unfortunately the pandemic has caused a lot of disruption so the chances to watch have been limited, I feel 'again' it's down to lack of preparation and planning. To not even bother offering any form of resistance is embarrassing; very sad when any form of selection would have no effect on the mentality of the team.
