They have none. Despite everything that's happened this year, they still have no idea whatsoever against anything other that FM mediocrity on flatish surfaces. At the first sign of anything else they wave the white flag. Innings + 150 by tea on Day 4 you'd think.

but the pitch and the batsmen who need to bat on that makes all the difference

Why do you always slag off Indian players?

KP can be an even bigger prick than Clarke on his day.

You got to wonder what difference playing an extra spinner in Panesar would have made on this pitch.
Oh well it looks like another overseas hiding for England and India bash another team at home and neither team learn anything to become better sides.

Given that Swann is a much better bowler than Panesar, I'm not really inclined to believe that it would've had that great an impact.

swann's turns it into the righties while monty turns it away so could've been handy

He wouldn't have bowled better then Swann, but he would have been more useful then Anderson, Broad, Bresnan, Patel and Pietersen.

Well have we seen any yet? Anderson isn't and Trott has been dire for ages. Not convinced by Compton either.Surely any decent first class batsman would be ashamed not to ton up on a slow Indian road like this?

You do realise just how low a standard you're setting there right?

When does Adelaide start and real cricket, not this woeful **** with spinners bowling and the ball never bouncing above shin height? It's like watching a news reel from 1900 or so. It's laughable.
No wonder it's been thought a joke for 80 odd years. Like watching women's cricket ffs
