Bancroft should be given a shot - would have played in this series if they'd picked him on his elite shield stats - no-one came close

just 1 of many ruthless decisions not made during this series (on both sides)
Cam had a chance to make his case in country cricket - couldn't crack a 50
Harris had a chance too - made some runs - but a string of low scores in between

Not as a batsman, which is why Johny was picked, for their bazball theme shit. Saved their assses in the first innings first test with the bat, but cost them big time with the gloves



Smith 2nd test?
Bairstow is a fat slogger, not a batsmen. And even if he was better, the mistakes when keeping swing things massively in Foakes favour.

We’re lucky England are stupid.

Disclaimer: I may be in love with this guy because I am always talking about him, but here goes.

If they wanted a bazball keeper they should have gone Jos Buttler. Better keeper and batsmen than the Porky Jonny.

Bancroft didn't even get selected for the Australia A team this year. I doubt he is ever getting picked again, despite being the clear next best performer.

Bit piss weak boys leave or swing.

Cummins the MVP here. England got it to move and he is our best.
