England reached new levels of shit in their batting before lunch. Decent fight back by Stokes and Bairstow in the afternoon session but it won't be enough.
You need to turn up in Oz with an absolute gun team or you're going to get your arses handed to you.
I bet these Englishmen are wishing they could've escaped with a 3-test series.
David White & Co need to be thinking long and hard about what sort of pitches we're going to play them on when they presumably come here for this cycle of the WTC.

For the talk about the England openers, there is some work going into Rory Burns's technique/setup. Bharat Sundaresen is one of the more insightful behind-the-scenes posters about cricket on Twitter, and this wasn't the first mention of Burns spending extended time with Graham Thorpe since he was dropped:

Seriously good 50 from Stokes coming in under all sorts of pressure and the best bowling lineup in the world (ever?) with their tails up. Boy does he needs to go on with it though.
Marshall, Holding, Garner, Croft, Roberts etc say hi.

That was shit, skipper
Tough chance, bloody hard to get those on the follow through
these two will both get hundreds now
Nice to be half right. Better than most manage on here.
But seriously, pretty happy for Bairstow, great fight and pride shown. Always nice when a pretty ho hum sort of a player has his moment.
