ARRRRRRRRRRR I hate the ECB and their inability to put together a decent tour schedule!!

Why not the 10th Jan, still gives the players a nice Christmas and New Year break and then have three 4 day games...

Oh and joy of all joys, in between the third and fourth test we have a two day waste of time... why? Why? WHY??

It is this kind of tour itinerary that has left us coming from behind on every tour for the last four or five years, we never seem to learn. The Schofield report was a complete waste of paper, a simpleton could have told the ECB what they needed to do, and a proper tour itinerary should be high on the list. It is truly pathetic...
