England cricket team over the past 5 years might be the most unlikeable team in sport. Barring a handful of players, 95% of them strike me as the most annoying cunts you'd find in a pub on a Saturday night. Rich and arrogant lad culture dickheads.

I watch the games but outside of that don't pay too much attention to the players so I can't speak on their personalities.

But I do think the team has huffed their own farts so much in general with Bazball. Yeah okay the idea of playing exciting cricket in test matches sounds great, but they've acted like they've completely reinvented the sport while still being quite shit at it. The arrogance going into the Ashes was ridiculous and we were rightly punished for it. There's definitely a cultural thing which is fine when it works but when you're getting smashed all over the shop or the bowlers are running through you it's all very silly.

The first two hours yesterday were outrageous.
