An innings defeat is looming to wrap up a 5 nil stuffing. An absolute shambles of a tour.

This isn't embarrassing. We'll be lucky to make 50.

England have been shaky under cooks captaincy
Maybe Strauss team plodded on with their talent and experience winning games but they have not played that well as his captaincy has gone on

Where's Bisham with his ultra positive outlook? Surely this mess is even too much for Bish.

I was just thinking this one could be done and dusted tonight and England could be on their way home on the first boat in the morning. But presumeably someone in the marketing department has gummed a one day series on to the end of this pantomime so the humiliation will endure for a few more weeks yet I wonder if the England authorities could just right out a cheque to their Australian equivalents in lieu of the remaining games and just wrap up the operation tonight

Hopefully quicker than our last slump! You're right though these things come in cycles...... They do indeed ...although this defeat should not be taking place .....certainly not to the extent that it is .....no way is 5-0 indicative of the difference between the two teams

And they were better bowlers , we also had better players like Gower and Gooch I don't get how we can go this shit in a year Six months more like ......it's surprising how much sport is played in the mind ....we have certainly not been there mentally in this series ...but that's not to make excuses for very badly played cricket

We were not great in the tests against NZ both home and away We weren't I agree .....but we should not be staring a 5-0 defeat down the throat from this less than great Australian side .....they have played well but they must be shaking their heads in disbelief at how easy we have made it for them.....very disappointing to say the least

It is a great Aussie side though
Any players following in the footsteps of gilchrist, warne, McGrath, ponting e al will always be deemed not as good but most of them have been exceptional

Considering on the circumstances he had to come in that wasn't a bad innings by ballance, shame lunch stopped his momentum.
I expect to see England 100 for 4 following on when I wake up
