Battle of the English batting capitulations (2010s)

[TT Boy]

South Africa had a few golden ones in Sri Lanka too.

It's a golden era for sure. Hard to think of a side that is generally collapse proof. New Zealand perhaps? Even then it's helped by not having too many big away tours recently.

50-0 to 90 all out.

50-0 to 90 all out.

Hence me saying generally.

That's like their only collapse in about 18 months in so from memory, hell even golden Australia collapsed from time to time. I can't think any side that went an extended period without a lolapse.

2019 Lord's vs Ireland, 1st Innings 10/77

I think we can lock the thread with this performance tbh

85 was a pretty decent score in the end. That innings from Stone might prove to be crucial.

Future statsmongering by CWer’s won’t count today’s match in their spreadsheets as minnows are always removed.

What the hell

Collapsing to God-mode Stuart Broad on a green wicket is one thing, but collapsing to Hardik Pandya on a not-so-green wicket is another. Getting bowled out for 58 on a pitch on which Henry Nichols can score a century is just dire. In reply to the currently existing thread for Australia, let's see what England have been up to in the same period:

2018 Auckland 1st innings 10/52
2012 Abu Dhabi 2nd innings 10/51
2018 Nottingham 1st innings 10/105
2015 Lord's 2nd innings 10/91 including 7/52.
2017 Perth 1st innings 6/35
2017 Brisbane 2nd innings 6/58
2017 Nottingham 1st innings 7/68
2017 Nottingham 2nd innings 10/133 including 5/11.
2016 Centurion 2nd innings 10/99
2016 Mirpur 2nd innings 8/59
2014 Leeds 1st innings 6/54
2016 Visakhapatman 2nd innings 10/71
2016 Chennai 2nd innings 10/104 including 8/76 and 6/15.
2013 Brisbane 1st innings 8/54
2013 Brisbane 2nd innings 7/39
2013 Adelaide 1st innings 6/24
2013 Melbourne 2nd innings 10/114 including 5/6.
2014 Sydney 1st innings 5/23
2012 Dubai 1st innings 8/80
2010 Perth 2nd innings 10/100 including 6/42.
2013 Bridgetown 2nd innings 10/112
2012 Galle 2nd innings 6/31
2010 Oval 2nd innings 7/28
2011 Nottingham 1st innings 6/51
2013 Lord's 2nd innings 6/54
2013 Nottingham 1st innings 6/37
2015 Leeds 1st innings 7/57
2015 Dubai 1st innings 7/36
2015 Sharjah 2nd innings 10/125 including 6/25.
2016 Mumbai 2nd innings 6/15

Further suggestions welcome. Vote at the end of the decade.

Also 2nd innings Lord's 2014. Not such a bad collapse but self destructing to Ishant Sharma short balls has a place all on its own.

Original post was a bit harsh. Henry Nicholls is now the 5th best batsman on the planet.

That series turned out to be the start of his current golden run. Doesn't change the point it was a friendly enough pitch for batting.


Plus I made the mistake of following what seemed to the consensus amongst NZ posters (not Athlai ftr).

2019 Headingley 1st innings 10/57

 

[Bijed]

As the decade draws to a close, England take full advantage of their penultimate chance to contribute further to this thread with a solid effort of 7/39: 2019 Centurion 1st Innings

 

[honestbharani]

Are we sure we can call this now? Or should we wait for their second innings too?

 

[Starfighter]

Shall we do this?
