The test series was a farce. Clearly we can't put a team together right now, the selectors were changing people left and right for every test. I'm sure many are asking what on earth has happened to cricket talent in this country? It seems like something has gone wrong at the grass roots level.
I know we can't expect a team like we had in the previous decade, that really was some truly amazing dominance.
Full credit to England though, they did the job well, and I guess finally for once the barmy army got their moneys worth coming all the way here. They were all over the place in Melbourne once they realised they had won the Ashes.
