Difference between these two teams is attitudinal. Australia are ruthless, England are lacklustre at the moment.
Apart from talent, you mean?
Of the two teams that played here, I'd only take Root, Stokes and Buttler in a joint team.

Why didn't Warner bat? Is he injured or protecting his average?
Injured.
Got whacked in the ribs. Was off the field too long to bat.
Aus trying to pretend ... err say they're not broken.
Conjecture whether he's up to the next test.

OK good, thanks. I wasn't watching, glad it wasn't a cop out. And to be fair to him, despite all his faults, he doesn't seem the kind to shirk the duty

Sigh. All too predictable.
May I do a Glenn McGrath and predict 5-0 to Aus? -

Looking at England they've still got quality - scoring 300ish in the second innings is a solid performance - but Australia found a way to come back.
With Warner probably broken and a couple of the bowlers already looking a bit shabby, the question is whether they can do it again.

Australia are a strange mix of freakishly good and complete journeymen. Who will open if Warner is gone @NTA ?
I do like how you’re trying to be magnanimous but the truth is this English team is out of its depth here.

Quality player. You’d think he’d be in the mix somewhere.
