    Oh I got it. Enjoying the solid win for a change:

    you might even be up for a 5 0’clean sweep of the next Ashes by this stage.

    Got to say, the ablution dodgers are looking ok now they've finally faced up to the simple fact that they need foreign Captains/Coaches born with some bottle to lead them

    With the vagaries of the English summer weather it’s unlikely, but well done to both of you for recognising the brilliance of these victories against the world’s two best test teams.

    ^So, no recognition from any of you about the Kiwi influence. The tumbling Toms win 1 game (one) from their last 17 or so Tests then swallow their fake pride and put in a leadership duo from a country on the other side of the world with a population of 73 and things suddenly look good, very good in fact.

    But yeah, we'll just put that down to coincidence

    I may be wrong but McCullum isn't out there batting and Stokes didn't really contribute much with the bat so the basics of the English team were already there. Still if it gives HW a little lift and spices up his English Brekkie i'm all for a bit banter. Oh and lets also not forget where the Kiwi's came from in the first place much like all the Aussies.

    And getting unmercifully flogged pretty much every time they masqueraded as a Test team for the last few years, 1 from 17 rings a bell

    Now what happened that suddenly turned their attitudes and fortunes around almost overnight and instilled the urge to fight I wonder...

    I don't think sand paper helps with the bat, nor does Linseed oil these days. But that's where they've improved by about 900% since Kiwi mercenaries with some bottle in them took over and "let's keep a stiff upper lip lads" got replaced by a "get out there and score some fucking runs" attitude.
