Has any batsman failed for a whole series as badly as Warner has in this ashes in recent memory? 

 

Unbelievable to go from the form he was in in the WC to this. 

 

I know different formats but still, he's an experienced test cricketer. 

Nope.


Only batsman in history to make 8 single figure scores in a 5 test series (note he still has another innings in which to extend that record).

 

Absolutely laughably bad.

 

If you ignore his 61 (his only double figure score) then he averages 2.87.

The BBC feed earlier they said the worst-ever 10-innings test score for an opening batsman was John D'Arcy back in 1958 who scored 136 total.

 

Warner has 84 with one innings to go...

Missing absolutely nothing in that way isn't just being a genius, perfection like that is not exactly human IMO.

Ok he's an alien then.

From the BBC Cricket thread :D

 

Willgoose: Has anyone checked that Steve Smith isn’t a robot? The only way to get him out might be pouring water over him to see if he short-circuits.

And something else.

 

How the hell does Smith miss nothing on his pads? I mean, every single batsman eventually misses one that goes straight, but not him. How?

Just settled down with a glass of red to watch the evening session and very first ball he has done exactly this:scarf:

i think we can all agree Curran should have been selected earlier in the series!

 

Easy to say that now, but in place of who?

 

Woakes had a brilliant summer, did nothing wrong in the first test and for some reason barely used in the second.

He was all over the place with the 61 as well, could have got out about 5 times before he reached double figures.
