Poor England. I feel for them. Everything has gone wrong.
Where to from here.
The POMs need to fly out some better players for the next 2 tests.
They have already lost the Ashes. It makes no difference.

But they could have revenge for their loss.

Follow through your line of thinking.
OK, 3 new players are sent out, the English thrash Australia for the remaining 2 tests.
What has been proven? What is the damage

Or, 3 new players are sent out, the English lose the remaining 2 tests also.

Had to sit through part of the BBL Adelaide v Sydney. Tho I never watch sport if I can help it the BBL was relatively painless.

I asked why he didn’t have the Ashes on. He was disgusted by the ball sandpapering incident and how the guilty were treated. That stand impressed me.

They need to blood some of the up and coming players. Sure, they might get beaten, but they'll gain a wealth of experience.

when do you suggest the give their up and coming players a chance? I see no chance of England winning any series with the current team. Not against Australia, not against India nor anyone else. The young players need to be allowed to experience the big games and sure whilst they might lose, it'll put them in good stead for next year

If England are down 3:0 then what do they have to lose?
