Need to look towards life after stokes which creates two holes - captaincy and all rounder. Brook isn’t mature enough for the former (yet). Hameed takes the bc role. Rehan fits the aggressive style and solves a spin issue with Bethell able to take up some slack as needed.

How can the management watch this England team and conclude that more practice in every discipline of the game wouldn’t help them individually and collectively.

Are England going to lose by an innings here or am I jaded and sceptical having watched too many ashes down under horror movies in the past.

Genuinely might be one of the stupidest cricket shots ever played.

Darts players with an abnormally large amount of ill-advised interviews this year. From Ricky Evans’ gravy rant to Charlie Manby whinging about his girlfriend’s job and Littler looking absolutely rattled while sarcastically thanking fans for paying his prize money.

Lyon injured. Target down to 150. Just soften the ball a bit before attacking again. Brainless cricket.

City of London keeps telling developers ‘yes you can build that skyscraper but you have to put a free Roman temple museum in the basement’, ‘yes build it but it needs a free viewing platform on the 58th floor’. And it’s gradually becoming quite a good day out

I'm a late convert to test cricket but now absolutely love it. I think it's one of the very few things in life comparable to a novel - with different acts, a specific setting, character arcs that rise and fall, the beginning may end up being nothing like the end #Ashes2025

Once it’s been accused and admitted that someone “intentionally” tried to blind an opponent, how do you then ever let him share a field with other athletes again, let alone in as short a period as a few months that involve no meaningful matches?

The general rule is that if Crawley scores runs, you know the track is flat. England’s first innings total was overrated.

Actually quite like the Will Jacks pick. The dogmatic choice would have been to double down on the Bashir experiment. Can we do Crawley next please.

An aging, injury-riddled Australia. If there was ever a time to just occupy the crease, put a ton of overs in Starc’s legs, make Lyon bowl through whatever niggle he’s got. England not only lost the game, but missed a huge opportunity to weaken Australia for the series. Brainless

Extremely sporting of Zak Crawley to let England play the test with 10 men in solidarity with Usman Khawaja not being able to open yesterday.

What to do when hurricanes leave you without power? Finish Quantum of Menace by @VaseemKhanUK of course. Witty, vibrant, and often profound. A very worthy new entrant into the Bond canon.
