Depressing!
Its pretty pathetic isn't is? This kind of proves that there is a general lack of ability, rather than what we usually like to think, lack of temperament, lack of patience, irresponsibility etc. If most of our scores were in the 20s and 30s, that could have been said - 'our batsmen have the ability, they get starts but they don't have the temperament to go on, they get impatient, they play irresponsibly blah blah.' But when over half our scores are below 10 and over two-thirds are below 20, it just shows that our batsmen aren't really good enough for the top level. The new bunch might change that in years to come, but when you see something like this, you know why all this talk of 2-tiers go on!
