3rd test - Headingley

Whatever any of us might think about Bazball we'd probably be 2-1 or 3-0 up if we'd picked a fit team from the first test to play it.

We’d be 3-0 up if we didn’t have so many braindead cricketers, because during key moments in all the games so far they’ve done completely f*cking stupid things to allow the Aussies to take advantage when they should’ve been dead and buried.
 
Great win. Over the moon it’s still alive. Yes could be 3-0 either way. But they promised us entertainment and as much as it pisses me and others off at times they’ve delivered

We all get the exciting and expansive cricket but it has to be coupled with common sense and game management...Australia won 2 tests by our over thinking and being too clever..this Australia team are good but they have flaws and as we've seen today beatable...this result today could be massive psychological shift for England...but you have to take your chances when they are presented.

You're absolutely right. But if we weren't carrying Anderson, Robinson and Bairstow we'd have arguably got away with it

Owt like half decent cricket and the series would be over...australia played it better than us in the first 2 games...A decent english wicket and Wood showed us what could have been
There must be a call for Foakes now, JB hasn't really performed...
Question is...Do you give Anderson one last hurrah at his home ground?

No I really wouldn’t play Anderson. Should no room for sentiment. Had we lost or drew today I’d have said yes.
