The Ashes 2023

[McBain]

These aussies certainly don't deserve to be saved by rain, they are extremely lucky to have cheated their way into a 2-1 lead. England have scored more runs, taken more wickets, entertained more and shown a common decency that is beyond their lacklustre opponents

Woooaah you don’t need any extra salt on your chips mate.

Indeed, we need to have an honest hard look at ourselves and admit our guilt before the situation can truly be improved and not just have lip service paid to it, like all decent nations do.

Darren Lehmann: We want to make Broad go home crying.

I've really enjoyed Adam Collins coverage of the ashes, great broadcaster. This interview with Vaughan is a good summing up of how brilliant England have been in the 4th test and how timid the aussies are. If you can keep Vaughans grubby tory fingers away from twitter you still see the insights and mentality that made him a top skipper
