superb bowling performance from Archer and Tongue, when we get it right there's a lot of talent there.

Dishing out another drubbing to India here.

Will be five straight defeats for the bigots, not counting one no result. Lovely stuff.

I take back what I said about not caring about T20Is, this series has been mega lolz

[Richard]

For context though this has to be one of the worst Indian teams to come over here. I assume they are missing a lot of their starting line up?

McCullum sacked as test coach - keeps one day

Key the incompetent yes man keeps his gig and probably gets a pay rise.

Suits make a mess as usual

[Meanwood Villa]

Key does seem to be Teflon

Must keep himself fully lubed up in case any of the suits enter the room

Be interesting to see the direction I go. I suspect it’ll be a more disciplinarian type.

Shocked that Key hasn't gone - i read somewhere that he was negotiating his exit - but clearly not.

Feels a bit of a mess - 3 home tests before the ashes and feels like it might end up being a bit of a baptism of fire for coach and some of the players.

Who will be in the running?

Richard Gould should go as well. That man has reduced England Test cricket to a trivial sideshow.

I’m not sure sacking everyone is the smartest idea. It’s not been great of late, obviously, but it doesn’t take that much to turn it around.
