James Anderson says Australia is bullying England

Cummins has an old fashioned Miller/Compton movie star vibe minus a bit of brylcream; I could see Pat Cummins hanging out with Douglas Fairbanks on some old movie set. I think Anderson is what ladies refer to as a ''bit of rough'', or southern ladies refer to as, ''a bit of northern rough''? Think Lady Chatterley's Lover. Broad is a Spice Boy. Cook is ever the public school boy.

wait, does public school mean private school in the UK? because a public school boy in Australia would be a Lyon or a Warner if you know what i mean

Public school is a paid posh boys school in the United Kingdom like Eton.

GIMH, far from it tbh. If I were England I’d persist with Stoneman - I just think he has something about him. Vince I’d stick with for the series. Bairstow should be at five and Malan six. I like the cut of Overton’s jib too, he has ticker and does a bit with the ball. The bowling looks ok if Moeen can get some mojo happening. He doesn’t look likely atm unless he’s bowling to Khawaja.

Where would you fit in Davey Warner?

Agree except for Vince. I'm happy enough to give him the next test since he did get 83, but if he fails (as tbh I imagine he will) drop him. Can't actually remember what reserve batsmen we've got, though? Ballance, I think?

Comprehensive or state schools.
I love the Yes, Prime Minister gag about that.

"We'll reintroduce conscription to get them off the streets and give them a comprehensive education to make up for their comprehensive education."

Mitchell Starc's a decent looking bloke.. has a bit of a dermatology issue but a quick change of diet can fix that.

Handjob, Warner and Overton are probably the least infused with beauty.
Nah there's something odd about Starc's mouth/jaw.

No, could you clarify what you mean by this actually? Asking for a friend

Yeah Starc is definitely not a "good looking bloke" in my book, unless you're using the definition where by most people in the world are "good looking" unless they're truly deformed or obese
