Series obviously. One of games count for nowt.Serieses or games? Australia came mighty close winning in India the last two times tbh
Well then I agree with you on something for a change. 2014 RSA was probably the last great away series Australia won (Pakistan was alright). Englund at least managed to beat up South Africa 3-1 or somethingSeries obviously. One of games count for nowt.
It's been frustrating this series. 3 years ago England were just outplayed, but here they've had their chances and not taken them. It's ironic that the one Test they won they were in a far worse position after Day 2 than 2 of those they lost.
Shame they can't just come home now. Waiting 10 days for a dead rubber seems a bit pointless.
He's in the squads but been an underperformer in domestic cricket with ball and bat. Not shown much track-record so far to run through sides with the ball or go big with the bat.What the hell happened to Sundar?? He seemed like a player made for tests..
3-0 in Pakistan was pretty good too on stupidly flat pitches. That was probably when Bazball peaked.Well then I agree with you on something for a change. 2014 RSA was probably the last great away series Australia won (Pakistan was alright).

Tbh he performed well and showed lot of promise during limited international time. Then all of a sudden, selectors started completely ignoring him.He's in the squads but been an underperformer in domestic cricket with ball and bat.

England: Go to India and perform better than last time despite brook and leach missing the whole series, and Root underperforming relative to last series. England where very close to being 2-2 heading into the last test FFS.Anyway its time for England to move on from McCullum. He was a filthy slogger who couldn't play proper test cricket when he played and now as a coach could not comprehend how test cricket should be coached.
he is ashwin's replacementTbh he performed well and showed lot of promise during limited international time. Then all of a sudden, selectors started completely ignoring him.
He is not good enough with the ball to be Ashwin's replacementhe is ashwin's replacement
will be first choice if ashwin is not available
hasn't lead spin attack without ash and failed yetHe is not good enough with the ball to be Ashwin's replacement
Injuries hurt his progress as well.What the hell happened to Sundar?? He seemed like a player made for tests..
Right now - 100% true. I do wonder what coaching and mentorship he could be given - because he is clearly a special all-round talent.He is not good enough with the ball to be Ashwin's replacement
Very good. SharpThe truth is in the last 20 years or so, Australia have underperformed in both England and India.
No series win in India since 2004.
No series win in England since 2001.
We've won series in both India and Australia during that period so we won't be taking any lessons from the Aussies about not winning this series in India thank you very much.
I wonder why? I wonder how?England: Go to India and perform better than last time despite brook and leach missing the whole series, and Root underperforming relative to last series. England where very close to being 2-2 heading into the last test FFS.
Should Australia drop mcdonald as coach? They've done about as well as we did at this point in our respective India series last year.
Ok GollumSerieses or games? Australia came mighty close winning in India the last two times tbh
As pointed out in another thread, neither had Jurel. I don’t want him in as a key bowler though, he seemed like a very handy bat though.He's in the squads but been an underperformer in domestic cricket with ball and bat.
