Thing is though just shows how crucial the big players delivering is

Test cricket so much about pressure and confidence. For a few series Cook or someone would get big runs or one of the bowlers would bowl a wonder spell and the whole team would have a platform to play free from pressure.

In this series the opposite has happened. We've let Johnson get to us and their batsmen have picked up on the momentum and got their confidence back. Hard to see how we can turn it around now with them having lots of players in form.
