Cricket Season Thread

Fair dink, Bazball is a complete myth made up by giant Pom mastheads to make the Pom fans feel better about loosing again. All Baz was trying to do was get them playing positive cricket instead of the dour lemon sucking moral winning cricket they have played for 100 years, and to really break the shackles he went all out attack for a while. Since then there is no doubt he has reined it in to “Mythball with brains”. But I was thinking on one of the many nights I had no cricket to watch due to them getting flogged in record time, that you can’t just go out and pummel the opposition like the Oz teams of the 90’s onwards. You can’t just walk down the pitch from ball one and smash the worlds best bowlers like Haydos unless you got Haydos, and last I seen he was at a fancy cowboy hat shop on Rodeo Dr.
Yep. They've been drinking their own bathwater (or however the saying goes). Frustrating thing (for the English) is they have actually built a good side capable of winning in Aus for the first time since 2010. The only thing getting in the way of them winning this series is their enormous ego and Starc, Cummins, Hazlewood...
 
I wouldn't be writing the Poms off just yet

If their bowlers can repeat their first innings efforts our batting will struggle

We can't expect Head to repeat his batting heroics every test
