England have been so awful.... even more awful than could have possibly been predicted even for them, that Lyon isn't going to bowl a single ball in the entire test match

thank goodness for his 31 runs.... which turned out to be better than 17 of the 20 England scores (and nearly as good as the other 3)

Wood would have scored more points than Stokes in this series despite playing a game less

He might even have scored more than Joe Root.... very close

I might have a go at adding those up tomorrow. Hell, I'm retired.

I'm currently having the name engraved on the trophy.

Somehow with Cummins, Lyon, Smith, Labu, Warner, Hazlewood and a 4-0 win to Australia, I'm not going to win this. Apparently Root and Stokes scored more than Labu and Warner.

Of course with all the subs, I didn't have Warner for the first game, and everyone had Labu for the critical second one...

The comp is odd sometimes.

That's to all for taking part. I'll keep my numbers for two days if there are any queries.

Always pick the opposition spinner in any FL involving the England team

thanks Arthur for organising this........... I'll add it to the honours board

I see you've invoked the spirit of David Cameron and instigated a bottom up, rather than top down reform of the leaderboard rankings

Thanks Arthur. (I thought I should have 347 for that Hobart Test but it wouldn't make any difference)

Congrats to The Footman for a fine win : very smart selection :salute
