    5th Test (The Oval) - 31st July to 4th August

    Pope averages 40+ under McCullum. He's got a ton of flaws but he's MILES ahead of 2019-2022 Crawley/malan/Bairstow. Crawley is functional at best, but in his current state he's miles better than whoever else England tried in that period bar cook.

    This, 100%. England's win loss was 0.8 in the 3 years before bazball, 13 wins, 16 losses, ton of draws. In the same period post baz there 25 wins, 14 losses, w/l of ~1.75. even if they get 5/0'd in Australia like they did pre bazball (4-0 I know) there still 25-19 with a 1.3 wl. They've...

    5th Test (The Oval) - 31st July to 4th August

    He's not great vs the ball coming back in, isn't amazing vs spin, and a shaky starter. These become exhaserbated in 3th/4th innings when there's more in it for the spinners/pacers get more inconsistent bounce.

    5th Test (The Oval) - 31st July to 4th August

    Shame England didn't chase this. Highest chase here was THAT gilbert Jessop fastest 100 game that kept popping up early in the stokes regime. Would have been nice to top that chase and finally go past Jessop.

    Don't think that atkinson edge carried to rahul. Very harsh to call that a drop.

    I still think Perth was more impressive. Doing that after the first innings duck against a full strength Aussie attack was next level.

    TBF next two balls where 135. Still concerning though. Atkinson doesn't move the ball enough consistently enough to be operating at 128-135. Needs to be 135-145.

    English Domestic Season 2025

    I feel real bad for Ben Compton. Since coming to Kent he's averaged 1.5-2x what Crawley has in FC cricket playing for the same team, on the same decks, in the same position. Yet Crawley's played 30+ tests while for underwhelming returns in that period and he can't even get a sniff.
