Guarantee Cook won't be asking for anyone else's opinion.

 

Naive from Vince and Malan on several levels.

Is Cook just saving the reviews for himself? Amazing decision from Malan, wouldn't you call for a review even if didn't know you nicked it? How did he not feel that? England are in the process of throwing this away as usual.

No idea to your first question. Could just be clueless, or Malan and/or Vince could be, or they could just lack the confidence to use them out of fear of being wrong. 

 

Vince's was a thin nick, but Malan has hammered his. Fuck knows how he hasn't felt that.

 

Bairstow looking awful...can we please not shit the bed.

It was completely inexplicable. Did he think he woke up this morning and turned into Kevin Pietersen?

Appalling, hopefully that's his test career done. He's batting at no 6, we need more than a 20 20 tail-ender chasing a run total. I would assume he views himself as completely owned by Lyons and therefore decided to smash it around before the inevitable? Pretty disrespectful of the guy at the other end of the wicket on nearly a 150 who is quietly racking up the runs.

 

I've come to the conclusion that most of the England team including the captain are actually pretty thick, you've got someone like Cook who has played himself in on a big score so how about not deciding to try and hook a short one or open yourself up for one.

Fuck sake, the cunt can't half put together a massive score.

 

Moronic bowling at Broad earlier too. He's struggled since being hit a few years ago, but Chris Martin he is not.

 

And his 180 odd on a road doesn't change the fact there is a massive disconnect between Mitch Marsh being selected as the 5th bowler and Smith's relatively frugal use of him.

 

Hot days in the field, a strike bowler out injured, his replacement doing nothing, another bowler battling illness and he bowls 10 out of nearly 140 overs? Ok.
