England's batting is heavily reliant on Nat Sciver-Brunt, but she hasn't really turned up.

Series isn't quite over, though. England can still tie it.

Nah, it's over. Even if they tie it, they've lost the Ashes.

They were terrible throughout. And the aussies were missing two of their key players.

The men are even worse than the women. That was dire. Does nobody in England know how to play spin? There's off spin. And there's leg spin. And sometimes, a googlie. Watch their hands. It wasn't turning massively either.

Meanwhile Jos Buttler has spoken out against a boycott of the Afghanistan game.

Again, very clear echoes of what was said by players who went to apartheid South Africa.

I’m led by those experts on situations like this, but as a player you don’t want political situations to affect sport.

I mean wtf does he think has happened to Afghan women's sport due to the political situation. 'as a player' maybe he might put himself in the shoes (under the burkha ) of female Afghan cricketers.

Very disappointing from Buttler.

Jos Buttler says England boycott of Afghanistan fixture ‘not the way to go’
