Hmm I’m not sure personally…. We don’t even look like making a par score, let alone a good one….. so far at least (fingers crossed). Even with much poorer sides against FAR superior Aussie ones we’ve been more competitive with the bat at times.

Bowling, yea it hasn’t been a complete disaster, we bowled well in the first innings of the first test but since then? Very hit and miss to put it politely.

Maybe I should say it’s the worst batting performance I can remember then.

Oh mate its horrific no doubt

But the Mitch Johnson tour has me still waking up in cold sweats

Is this the worst ever performance in an Ashes series so far? I think it’s the worst in my memory? Even when they were clearly better in the 90’s we still got the odd score on the board and took it deep on occasions in tests, even if we ultimately lost them.

That first test loss is the biggest fudge up i can think of, to be in (almost) complete control of the test match at lunch on day 2 with 8 wickets in hand, to then lose by close of play was just criminal.

2012/13 was far worse
5-0 and we was lucky to get 0
