The Ashes 2023

[jazzy]

Brilliant test match, great series. Genuinely when its like this it's the best sport of them all. I thoroughly enjoy it whereas I always feel like I'm further and further detached from football.

Be gutted in 10 days time when there isn't another test.

Yeah we have the ridiculous Hundred to look forward to

It is sort of funny that after all that, it's a draw lol gotta love cricket

It wasn't a fair outcome to the series.
But for the weather England win 3-2 and should have been 2-1 up going to Old Trafford.
One team played attacking cricket the other employed ultra negative tactics.

Australia won the big moments to go 2 up. England finished the series much the stronger team, and played by far the better brand of cricket.

But 5 games is a long time and you need to start well. Australia didn't deserve to win the series, but 2-2 isn't that unfair a reflection either. And ultimately the record books say 2-2 and 2 even teams.

It's a bit of fun of an evening...

The coward won’t appear while we’re in a good position but you can bet your bottom dollar that he’ll appear in the blink of an eye if Aus get there saying “Look at me, I told you so”.

So his finger to this post shows that he was there but keeping quiet. Where are you now you cockwomble?

I'll be amazed if I watch a ball of that.

I said the pitch looked favourable - check

I said the Australian batsmen are no worse than ours so no reason they can’t make the same total we did - check

I said Australia were in the driving seat - check

No one here listened - check !

Do you see why nobody listened?

As somebody before me has just said, there’s a reason 380 is rarely chased.

Everyone has shut up now as my correct statements last night on the outlook for this match come to fruition

You just keep those correct statements coming please ktr

Really good to see @Kev The Rat be wrong yet again, summer not over yet and I'm sure he can continue to get a lot more wrong, what a streak he is on.

 

[RomanReigns]

Sniff it you cheating Aussies

Same can be said of the ultra nationalists now suddenly crawling out of the woodwork

 

[ToffeeTim]

Will be over a quarter of a century without an Australia series win in England.

 

[Connor]

Do these lads even come out and celebrate? Bit pathetic if they do
