Archer and Atkinson at least showed a bit more control in that session. Stokes and Carse were abysmal

This is slipping away fast. If we don’t get a clatter of wickets, which I don’t see we’re in massive trouble.

Bowling far too short, just dim.

The bowling just isn’t good enough, in the two innings since that Perth first innings it’s been ordinary.

Got to take 20 wickets in a match to stand a chance of winning it.England not looking like taking 20 in a series at the minute.

The reality is England have been under par with bat and ball this series for the most part.

Carse has been absolutely disastrous today. The wheels are fully off, England have piss poor in the field.

That’s clever from Carse to be fair, very good delivery. But we desperately need a clatter of wickets.
