England have been impressive but they shouldn't get too far ahead of themselves.

They're minnow bashing tbh.

I was at the game on Friday and seeing all those English fans singing with joy at beating a poorly selected Australian team who played poorly apart from a few select players was just cringe worthy. Not taking anything away from the English team, they have been the better team and deserve to win the series.

Australia can't build pressure with the ball in ODI. Then our batsmen choose to knock Ali Root and Rashid for 5-6 runs an over when run rate was 12.

Our bowling to the tail in both test and ODI needs better planning we bowl so short all of a sudden.

If Warner scores at least 30 we probably win with overs to spare. If White scores at least thirty we probably still win with overs to spare. If Steve Smith doesn't get robbed by the third umpire and scores another twenty we probably win. If Mitch Marsh doesn't hole out we probably win

Clearly, Tim Paine cost us the game coming in at 5/200 with 11 overs to play

Maybe the aussies should stop bowling wides,when you give your opposition two extra overs you really make things hard for yourself.

Stop blaming blokes. The poms have just been much better than us.

We scored 300+ in the first 2 and they wrekt. They score 300 and bowl way too well.

Nobodies fault, just getting schooled by a better team.

Poms are a bunch of nobodies on paper,everyone deserves to get massively bagged.

You were just bashing a bunch of homesick nellies just like we do to you back home and like the Saffas are doing to Indiplod atm.

No merkins can win Tests away from the comfort of their homes anymore.
You guys are just hammering a bunch of tired Test cricketers and untalented and overweight Victorians in the ODI’s.

If they played cricket at the Paralympics a few of the blokes in our team would qualify.

The decision not to give a guy like Short a crack in this series is looking more farcical by the minute.

The selectors lucked out with hunches on the Marsh's and Paine in the Ashes, but they've completely burned that goodwill.
