I'd say that nothing helps you get over losing a home series by engaging in a bit of minnow bashing, but we're honestly not much better than Sri Lanka.

On another note, England are 0/56 chasing 628 in the final innings against the Windies. Jason Holder scored 202* at a strike rate of 89!!!

Batting-wise maybe not at the moment but we're a long way ahead of them in the bowling stakes.

I am having a huge laugh watching the pommie plodders getting flogged by the Windies.The Ashes will be a much closer contest than what the poms have been claiming they are not very good

The conga line has finished with england a mere 381 runs behind.

With what happened to smith and Warner, our experienced test batsmen needed to step up this summer. Looking at you Khawaja! His shot selection and seemingly apathetic attitude should result in him not being in the team come ashes time.
Personally I like Burns. Glad he’s getting runs today.
My top six for ashes would be:
Warner
Harris
Burns
Smith
Head
Patterson/Maxwell
