The Teaboy Aug 2013 6:15pm, 9 Aug 2013 9,344 posts	0 The Teaboy I just get the feeling now that England have become too formulaic in all forms of the game. Very rigid in their approach to everything. When it doesn't go well, there is no free thinking to extricate themselves from a situation.
Doctor K Aug 2013 10:58am, 10 Aug 2013 2,938 posts	0 Doctor K I think they will regret not giving Onions a go at Durham. Tremlett should get a bowl at the Oval too. It will encourage competition. It's OK to keep a winning team -but this team would have lost at OT if it hadn't have been for the weather. England almost lost the first test too so it is OK for them to say "we've retained the Ashes" but they coud easily have lost them too with this complacency. Get your fingers out England !
