I remember England being shot out for 46 in the windies but that was against one of the all time greats.
This is pathetic.

Too many foreign mercenaries clogging up the county game ( and even the club game) and not enabling our own kids to develop and progress through the system.

Trouble is the ECB are totally blanking it and refuse to address the issue.

The sport is completely doomed from grass roots upwards yet Strauss and his cronies at HQ are oblivious to it !!!

Can't do much if the batters play around straight ones and miss full tosses.

It is hardly doomed at grass roots level. It is still heavily played at public schools.

Was pathetic but no more so than half of them.
No technique whatsoever, as boycott would say, you could have driven a bus between bat and pad.

Although I didn't see it five ducks suggests they were in one day mode. It doesn't hurt to have a proper look before going for shots

I know he had a good record before the Aussie series, but I'm shocked they picked him for this series. He was pathetic in Australia.

Having to rely on the weather to save you against new Zealand is bleak.
