God help me - the Test Cricket thread

[Professer E]

I don't think he's the greatest in game strategist,  but who is locally?  He was hamstrung by a very docile pitch which hardly broke up,  scatterbrained bowling plans and was a bowler down with Starc off. The bowling mentorship/coach need a good look at themselves... The effort was excellent, Starc aside,  but the plans/execution were very poor. 
Unfortunately I don't see another captain in that group,  and I don't rate Smith either.
