That doesn't stop it from being massively frustrating. England got themselves into positions where they should have won 2 of the Tests. What should happen and what does happen are two massively different things though.
The problem is when you say "should" have won. With this team in these conditions, it is quite obvious they were never in a position to say we should have won this game.
