What on earth was Stokes doing?
One of the worst shots I’ve seen in a long time

What a pathetic waft of a shot. Such ill discipline from Stokes.
What a clusterfuck.

Just got in from work to see Stokes play a shocker, stretching and off balance.

Scarpering for a single of the 3rd or 4th ball of an innings, like a team chasing in the 49th over of a ODI tells you all you need to know about the approach of these players. God knows what the coaching is like.

What were the first three wickets to fall like, poor batting good bowling or a combination?

Root got a good ball but failed to move his feet. The other 3 wickets were desperately poor batting.

So 4 wickets were desperately poor batting.

Cheers for letting me know how the first wickets went, and now another wicket goes. Denly taking a swipe.

Denly gone with another poor shot. These batsmen are rubbish at red ball cricket.

Turns out the hypothetical "Would you rather win the WC or The Ashes?" wasn't that hypothetical after all...

The sort of session that should see the end of a coach, the end of a captain, and the end of several test careers.
Been an absolute disgrace.

The problem is the top 4 are woeful, really very poor for this level and the team is totally unbalanced. You can’t have Jos Buttler batting at 7 in this side. He has to bat higher.
This has been absolutely appalling today, as bad a performance as I can ever recall and that for an England team is quite some achievement.
You can talk all you like about bowlers bowling well but today they’ve put it there, built pressure and we’ve had no answer, just totally folded.
