			Australia cruise to win over England.http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/cricket/25540136 
Well there is only one way to describe this and that is shambolic and Cook should do the honourable thing and resign as captain forthwith.

			Replaced by who though?  No one else is good enough apart from KP, and can't see him being made captain anytime soon.

			Australia extend their lead beyond 250 after bowling England out for 155 in the final Test.http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/cricket/25471870 
Sorry to say but l thought the last time we were whitewashed in Australia was bad enough but this lot has been a absolute shambles from start to finish and Cook as a captain could not organise a **** up at a brewery and many other players are not worthy of wearing the English shirt.

			James Faulkner plays a stunning innings to lead Australia to a one-wicket win in the second ODI in Brisbane.http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/cricket/25703998 
The sooner we get rid of Cook as captain the better as he is utterly clueless in all aspects.

			Sacking your best player after the worst tour ever is always a good idea...
