Trying to work out why Anderson stopped running to get run out and leave Root stranded on 182.

I'm hoping this a turning point and a nice boost towards the upcoming Ashes test.

Very entertaining 3rd test so far.
Think Trott is finished at test level sadly.

What an absolutely embarrassing display from England. They've been terrible since the World Cup. Not playing a full time spinner and leaving Trott to open just shows where the selector's heads are at right now. English cricket sadly needs a rocket up the backside to kick start it back into the now. This whole "the team lost but we need to give the same players a chance to make it up again in the next game" attitude has caused the team to become stale. The only person that's pulled his weight in the team is Root, followed by Anderson in some of the bowling innings. The rest of the team need a full review. If they keep going the way they are then this summer's cricket is going to be terrible for England fans.
Absolutely disgraceful batting performance in second inings. Why the hell is Buttler at 8. Should be in above Ali and Stokes.
Agree about Root and Snderson. Ballance has done OK too considering he hasn't been in the team long. Was impressed with Jordan too, looks like there is a player there and he does need persevering with.
Trott is finished at this level. He is not an opener and tried but can't see him getting back in the team lower down the order. I would love for him to turn it around but the Aussies will eat him alive after leaving the tour.

Trott's retired from international duty. Probably the right thing to do, he'll have known that he would have been dropped for New Zealand let alone Australia. Much respect to him for taking the decision rather that force the ECB to drop him. Hope he can get a few years in county cricket.
