I think thats probably an understatement by Geoff Boycott denphone,not being able to make 150 with the quality of batsmen England have the likes of Cook,Trott, Struass ect was simply very poor.
I know the Ball was turning a little more 2nd time around but as Boycs said they were missing straight balls
,to make 327 in the 1st innings and only 72 in 36.1 overs in the 2nd is beyond excuses.
If this was being played in the sub continent i could understand a bit more as their pitches are very dead and dry but Abu Dhabi is not the sub continent,in fact it even looked a tad beeezy some days.
