I, for one, would be very surprised to even see England progress through the group stage of next month's World Cup.
For that reason and the fact this series has been played on home soil, I'll be saving any praise for the national team for the World Cup where any success will be hard-earned rather than handed to them on a platter from an ordinary one-day outfit and an outfit that was suffering from an 'Ashes hangover' to boot.
