Should the rest of this series just be a preparation for Australia's subcontinent tours?

[Gnske]

Ashes is secure, why not. What are England going to do? Win?

Debut Swepson, debut Tanveer, give the other Sangha a bat. What's the worst that could happen.

 

[Gob]

Only if you can get wickets to turn

I mean dahbooing Swepson on a seamy road to get bopped will only hurt his confidence

Good thing the next test is at the oh so spinny SCG

 

[Gnske]

Make it a Nagpur I say

 

[Crazy Sam]

stuff the subcontinent. 5-0 grind them into the dust.

I can hear Shane Warne pleading for Riley Meredith right about now

[Spark]

Yes (within reason)

 

[Spikey]

Yes, drop Green for Maxwell

 

[Chrish]

On a serious note, how likely is that Australian tour to Pakistan in March would actually happen? Call me a skeptic but I would believe it when I actually see it.

Only thing that could possibly redeem it is if he meant "stuff the subcontinent full of wealth and adulation". Which I'm not willing to rule out at this early stage.

Only if the decks turn. Home games will only do so much to prep Swepson et al.

You can break England mentally for a decade here. That is a tempting opportunity.

I don’t think anymore needs to be done for that. They’re already broken.

yeah they're already cracked. the unspoken assumption here is that from a competitive sense in this series, it doesn't really matter what australia does.

[Test fan]

No prepare for next indian tour to australian to give some chance of winning

Every young cricketer MUST be made to watch England’s batting to understand what is meant by the term poor** footwork.

** I meant terrible/hopeless/deplorable/atrocious (all of them)

Honestly at this point Cricket Australia could offer up spots in the XI in a raffle and it wouldn't have an impact on things.

Just pick Sheffield Shield XIs for the next two games, give everyone a Test cap. Let an entire generation of Aussie cricketers get to be part of this 5-0 thumping.

So hopeless that it dragged you back to CW to post about it!

Hope you're doing well sir!
