England were awful! Aus weren’t much better. What should have been a 5 day match was over in less than 2! Rather than a “winner” it was the one who lost less cos they were both awful. And even though Australia won I don’t think they’ll be bragging about it

England got a thrashing in Australia.

First of five matches, so more to come, no doubt. It's going to be a painful winter.

Basically England managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
As they often do.
