Anyone following The Ashes?

I bailed out when Root went.
I'm not prepared to sneak out of my cosy wife- warmed bed at 4am, to listen to that rubbish.

Well at least we are putting up a bit of fight this morning albeit that it will be too little, too late I suspect.

Well that was all very disappointing.

I can't see past the Aussies winning 5-0 now especially with the other players in the squad who don't seem like earth shattering replacements if changes are made.

The Ashes: England beaten by Australia in Adelaide to lose another series down under

England's Bazball regime is in tatters as yet another Ashes series in Australia is lost at the earliest possible opportunity.

Still, never mind. It'll soon be Christmas!

...then this is the thread for you!

I love cricket, it is second only to rugby for me. I have been fortunate to watch some of a previous Ashes in Australia at the Melbourne Test in 2002. An amazing experience and I would dearly love to do the whole tour one day.

Anyway a not unfamiliar start to England's batting today with a paltry 172. We'll have to see how that racks up when the Aussies have batted.

Bugger me...we won a match!

I turn my back for a couple of days....
And look what happens!
Inconsistent, this lot.
