He's got such a fantastic wealth of knowledge but he's still blinded by his allegiances.
Of course he is. You guys have been polluted by the shitty English media. Have a look at Michael Vaughn. He's more wummy than Warne, has captained a winning side and knows feck all. Knows he knows feck all and still talks shit.
Anyway I went to bed at 0-shit when the Aussies were batting and to be honest they did well to take 11 wickets in the day. In another alternate universe where things were going their way they might have won that game. Much like the one that was washed out.
England deserved winners but I have to say it was far from convincing at times. Got out of jail a bit with an Aus brain explosion in the second test and a few jammy conditions bailing them out. But as they all say. That's cricket. Part and parcel of this beautiful game.
Work to do for the Aussies but I feel they have a pretty good chance of winning it back in Australia. All this hooting of 5-0 and more domination in Aus was a bit silly in hindsight. Cook has shown himself to be a pretty safe and back foot kind of captain when it's going his way and it suits him he's safe and dots i's and crosses t's which is important. It will be interesting in Australia where the conditions will be different and not suited to the dynamic of this team. I think he has the goods to work on his game and the team and come back and swing true down under but I am not convinced that England will have the depth of ability with the ball in Aus. I can guarantee you the first three pitches will be absolute roads and thousands of runs will be scored.
Can we play it next week?...

edit: Actually can we just do a best of 37 series every year?
15 weeks off throughout the year for rest and holidays? fecking come on? It would be awesome!
