I'm so annoyed with it that I've stopped watching. I had already questioned Stokes' inclusion before - now I want him dropped if he's injured. In the three skills, Batting, Bowling and Fielding England haven't been good enough. The pitches have also been rubbish. Australia haven't been at their best but are superior to England.

I almost turned it off. Brain dead idiots. After how they almost threw it away yesterday, they've done it again. Mountain to climb from here.

How thick have you got to be to keep playing the short ball after it failed so spectacularly yesterday? Can't believe what I'm watching.

What makes it so annoying is that they are clearly good enough as they keep putting themselves in good positions.

They have no ability to read the situation and adapt.

And then all the England players bowling at 79-81mph. Must seem like slower balls to the Aussies.

48/6 today. Says it all. Some dismal batting.

Embarrassing as usual against Aussies, I think after the good year or so we’ve had we’ve got a bit arrogant and over confident. The aussies have always been arrogant and full of themselves over the years, but they back it up with their performances

We gave it the big un and been royally rogered by the Aussies as usual, 188-1 to 325 all out is rubbish, especially as they are a bowler short as well..

Apparently we got exactly the sort of pitches that we asked for

We are still in this, just, but we must bowl Australia out cheaply for around 200 leaving 300 to get.

We batted very well up to 185, that's what we need to do, not go bonkers at it.

Root should play his way imo.

Personally, I doubt we asked for a dead wicket at Edgbaston and the Lord's pitch seems the usual Lord's pitch with a little less movement. Surely England would need green pitches as everyone's medium-fast, fast-medium. One paced attack.

We have only ever won 3 out of 32 tests at Lord's v the Aussies.
Soon to be 3 from 33.
Very poor play today.

I still can’t get over what happened this morning. So f***ed off. Been so excited about The Ashes for months and it’s basically over after 8 days of cricket due to moronic play.

I don’t mind getting beaten by good bowling but we literally have given every key wicket away by trying to smash everything for 6. Australia couldn’t believe their luck that we kept falling for the same trick. Total embarrassment. Look like idiots after giving it the big one in the build up.

Australia have carefully played themselves in and are cruising now.

Bazball can work, just need to know when to tone it down. The inability to read the situation is baffling. Everyone else can see what’s going on. Stokes should be totally ashamed after today and should consider his future as captain.
