Unbelievably, a team of one time heroes has just become the worst England touring Ashes team and therefore probably the worst England team ever.

amazing that the likes of KP, Bell, Trott, Cook, Broad, Anderson, Prior, Swann, etc have managed to be even more mediocre than some of our mediocre greats of the last 30 years, who stood out for you as a low point in that time?

 

I'd name Atherton, long serving captain, batsman who averaged about 35, always lost. Phil DeFreitas, bowler who never seemed to average better than 30. Dean headley, Chris Lewis? Chris Cowdrey?

 

What mediocre greats can you not believe this lot have been worse than?

At least Atherton didn't go to pieces facing aggresive fast bowling.
