To be fair not sure Duckett warrants much criticism his level since he came back is up there as one of the best openers in the world.

I agree, Duckett is aggressive but sensible and normally does a decent job, Crawley is a problem because he makes the same mistakes over and over and refuses to even see it as something to address.

To an extent, since his finger injury he’s had an issue but before that he had actually been consistently good for a while.

Stokes to be out for at least three months when his hamstring tear is operated on.

I think the coaches need to have a word about Ben's workload.

Touching to see Steve Smith playing his way back into form with the Ashes upcoming.

On a serious note, Aussies demolishing India here, who really have become rather brittle of late.

It's like when Man U play Liverpool, disappointing that the ****** can't both lose.
