Quite a lengthy partnership here

We’ve been looking for someone to open with Cook for the last four seasons and we can’t even find one let alone two openers, to bin him now would be suicide!Surely last chance saloon for Vince now.
Ali rightfully dropped but not sure why Woakes has seemingly taken the flak. Him and Broad should be opening our attack when Jimmy retires.
Hope this is Cook's last test as well, we should put faith in a replacement for this summer's tests. Personally would bring in Hameed.
UncleBuck curse....58 to beat...We’ve been looking for someone to open with Cook for the last four seasons and we can’t even find one let alone two openers, to bin him now would be suicide!
It was a good ball, a boult of lightning.Oh for fucks sake Cook, come on England
I heard the other day Ramps and Collingwood, the England batting coaches, had been released for this series to coach the north v south game.Was a good ball but foot movement awful. Who is coaching these ****s? We are looser than a slag outside off, not Test match batting.

Smith isn't suitable to Captain Australia. I'm not just talking about the events of this week, but the way he carries on, from the DRS 'brain fade' when he looked to the balcony for help with a review to calling other players cheats, his giggling at the Bairstow headbuttgate press conference, just in general, so many poor choices, poor conduct and 'laddish' disrespectful behaviour. He doesn't carry himself in the right manner IMO. It seems to me that he's lurched from one thing to another, never really learning, never really appreciating what his got and his responsibilities to his position as captain and poor judgement until finally the chickens came home to roost.
As people have said, it was uncomfortable to watch and I didn't take any pleasure out of it although it did cross my mind that he's not giggling now. He'll be back for the Ashes but I don't see how he can ever lead the team again although I'd totally not be surprised if he did. This is going to be rough on him for a long time but (and I don't like him at all) he should certainly be allowed to play again.
Warner on the other hand................He's not suitable to walk amongst decent folk. A carbuncle on the backside of humanity.
