1st test apart, he was pretty poor this summer also

Not only is he a poor captain, its affected his batting in a big way to, which has double hurt england. I'd make Broad captain also

Selectors have had a shocker and nobody has been mucked about more than root

Root dropped for final test WTF.

Thats the thing, they cant go into admin as all their debt is owed to 1 man who continually helps them out. So they have to manage the debt or pay it off and neither seem possible at them levels

I just cant see a way how you ever pay that off. Its mind blowing

Thats a shocking figure. Really is no wonder some cricketers suffer from mental health issues/depression with schedules away from home/family like that

Yh your right, I meant the series in general. I got it with 2 jpads that you can plug into your tv via scart

Sensible soccer was the greatest game of all time. Such a simple game, yet so awesome playing against your mates

Resogun on the ps4 is pretty cool. Love there to be more next gen takes of old school arcade type games like this

Aye very true, tho tbf root's would have been a worldie so arguably 2 dropped catches. The balance one was a shambles. He looked like kean flapping at a cross Still eng would have taken that score after losing the toss. Still its hard to judge a pitch until both side have had a whack on it

Activision will bleed COD dry. It still sells way to well and generates far to much cash for them to stop at ghosts. They will carry on until it finally stops making cash and that doesnt appaer to be anytime soon. For every fan that gets bored they find a new one

Its easier to believe there is some under hand shady explanation for all this, becasue its really hard to believe that this is all down to sheer stupidity.

Unless they see this as a way of generating money somehow back in india maybe? Who knows more you try and figure venkys out, the more your head hurts

Can anyone really take clarke serious when he's trying to act all aggressive. He's a wet fart...Jimmy would spark him out. its comical

Then dont let it hit your arms...simples. Honestly this is all school playground kind of pathetic. Jimmy threatened to punch him miss, but clarkey said he'd break my arms, but he started it miss, no I didnt he did, kean off Im telling your mum Man up, play cricket and win the 2nd test

Well clearly he isnt going to break his arms is he.....so yes I'd call it unsavoury banter

Sticks and stones really. Im sure england are no angels and give it loads also. Its rumoured Anderson said somethign to bailey that prompted Clarkes broken hand outburst. Its just Jimmys comment wasnt picked up on the stumps mic As for warner, he was nudged and prompted by questions for a response and he gave one This is top level international sport not an under 6's tindly winks competition. If you reach this level and some unsavoury banter affects you, then you shouldnt be there in the 1st place

If we win the test nobody cares about any of the comments. People are keaned becasue we lost the test. Just man up, give it back and get on with it

Really weird situation with Trott. Like jim says if he had this condition before going then he shouldnt have gone. If his head has gone whilst out there becasue of the sledging then thats even weirder

Well its a huge loss to Wigan, you just cant replace talent as good as that. Its also a huge loss to super league As for going to NZ, I guess he just wanted to test himself in the aussie league. At that stage its who can afford the fee and pay him the highest. They are the only kiwi team in the NRL so they arguably have the whole country supporting them as opposed to the aussie teams who have an area of Aus

Missed the game due to being at ewood, but watched the highlights earlier. Great performance and effort all wasted with 1 stupid keaning high tackle at the end. Its really hard to fathom what goes through players heads at times like that. What a prat.

sportingintelligence ‏@sportingintel 2m According to bookies England less likely to win 1st Test (c.60-1 currently) than for President of USA to confirm aliens exist in 2014 (50-1) lol

Very good 1st day, but a chance missed with the aussies reelin at 132-6 ??

Hahaha what an idiot. Clocks him in the face then doesn't even look at him to see whats coming back
