How did that come about and why didn't we carry on doing the things we did then?
Well Swann has retired and Monty is (sadly) gone in the head. If we could carry on playing them at their prime, I'm sure we would have done.
Moeen and Rashid failing with the ball I suppose are at least in good company - Shane Warne did bugger all in India too.

Under no real pressure they couldn't bat out a day- just not good enough I'm afraid. These are tough conditions and they are a good side- but we should be able to compete more than we have done recently.

Embarrassing and someone really needs to pay the price for this dismal tour.

The Aussies seem to have finally got their act together, especially Warner.
Just in time for the Ashes this winter
