Reasons for England's humiliating display at Ashes 2017-2018
With a Test still to be played, the outcome for the Ashes 2017-2018 is already in Australia's favour. The baggy green kangaroos have clinched test cricket's most coveted trophy, with an unassailable lead of 3-0. With England still to win a test match on this Ashes tour, let's take a look on the factors leading them to a series loss.
1. Root's Inexperience as a Captain
I must say, Joe Root has failed badly to lead his side from the front on this particular tour. He has failed both as a captain and with the bat as well. Steve Smith has completely outplayed him, be it in terms of batting or leading the side. Even the likes of Alastair Cook can't help him. To be very precise, Root will take many lessons from this tour when he boards the returning flight for UK.
