Steve James: administrators to give England a year of hell with sadistic schedule

They always go in Australia before this tournament, but only play a triangular with the India and the Australia in preparation.

But the rest of 2013 will probably begin with seven ODIs a T20 in India (back home for Christmas after four trials it), then there will be three tests, 5 ODIs and a T20 in New Zealand. Then the Kiwis come in England at the beginning of the summer for two Tests and three ODIs.

Then new ICC Test Championship will take place here in England, consisting of a semi-final and final between four best Test teams. Finally, these ashes back to back will start, comprising 10 tests, ODIs and T20s four 14.

Apologies if you become it lost, but that it should be stated. It's horrible. Overkill is not justice (and Australia will be here in 2012 for five more money-spinning ODIs, just like last year).

Administrators – and we are talking about the non-tournoi commercially blind sorts here - should hang their heads in shame. They clearly know as much about athletic obsolescence or Burnout as Dylan Thomas on Temperance.

In terms of cricket, regardless of the outcome of game Sunday, little was acquired in this series of seven matches in Australia. Only Jonathan Trott and the marvellously calm Chris Woakes can look back with any real affection.

Trott started a fringe player. He ended it as the first name on the sheet.

It is hardly surprising that generally drummers have stumbled. They played the most. So that agencies launchers have creaked, spirits of drummers have numbed.

If Ian Bell played, it is the only appeared in all fixtures 19 Tower. The Launcher see most was James Anderson, who will make his total 11 if he should play.

Altitude of Matt Prieur over Steve Davies as an opener could not yet found here to defend - hope this morning is its watershed - but I still think it was the correct move. Davies, Chris Read before him, is simply too quiet behind strains.

Before hitting on the Summit will be more suitable for the Sub-continental lands, and it can provide in England with the power of light necessary in the powerplay overs.

And after seeing improvements made in Sussex, playing last season, before seems more useful as opening dans l'ordre environment where he struggles initially to manoeuvre spinners.

Before then will open, but doubts remain on the rest of World Cup England XI, not least because of injuries.

Paul Collingwood at no. 7, role of the fifth player to fill with Trott and Kevin Pietersen, now appears a possibility, but there are certainly cases where a second spinner (Michael Yardy) was playing alongside Graeme Swann.

But different conditions require different thoughts, even a fresh start; but, unfortunately, it is not possible when sieve fatigue.
