They outplayed us in every part of the park, batting, bowling and fielding. Three tests has to say something (and other world matches too). I'm amazed that we stick with second rate players, particularly our wicket keeper. An average or slightly above average county standard player is not world class material. Geraint Jones is retained for his batting! Don't make me laugh. We need a GOOD wicketkeeper just for starters, not a stop gap wicketkeeper come fair to middling batsman. A great wicketkeepers contribution can support and inspire a fielding team, same as a great bowler of any pace.
Not Geraints fault...
...It just shows our selectors mentality and what they're happy to accept on the world stage.
