A series in two halves Roland gives his forthright opinions on the red ball action. He considers the mistakes and in his view the arrogance that Egland displayed in the matches at Edgbaston and Lord’s before the recall of Mark Wood, a defining factor in the five-match series, saw the home side fight back strongly at Headingley, Old Trafford and the Oval.
