You think losing 5-0 will be enough to get Bairstow dropped? Foakes was **** dropped for him after performing excellently. Absolute amateur hour with the bat and the ball this series. Can't bat, can't catch.

this is the problem when you pick a team based on the golf course rather than ability and form 

You could possibly forgive Bairstow the 8 easy dropped catches (it might actually be more than that )  from the series if he was batting well and scoring 50's each innings  .. but he's only performed once with the bat 

he'd played 2  first class matches after a year off with injury and the selectors thought he was ready for the Ashes  ... there should be a long hard look when this Ashes is over , even if we were to somehow come back from this

2nd ball of the morning

what a dreadful start

Root is always dogshit after a break. Be it overnight, or after lunch or tea. A walking wicket then it seems.

*sigh Moeen Ali predictably out falling for the same delivery over and over again.

Root, Bairstow playing balls they quite clearly should have left.

This England batting lineup has absolutely zero balance or, generally, form.

As others have said, for gods sake play Foakes!?!

But nah, let's bring Stokes's mate back in who has been out with a broken leg for half a year.

That is so disappointing. Done the hard work looked comfortable then just gives it away 

Yet again a brain fart from an England batsman. Add to the woeful fielding, dropped catches and we've gifted Australia this ashes.

Just gets too casual imo. Not switched on enough.
