DieselDaisy Posted November 9, 2017 Author Share Posted November 9, 2017 women's ashes on now. Historys page every stage advance australia fair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselDaisy Posted November 22, 2017 Author Share Posted November 22, 2017 Ashes starts midnight (uk time). The most important sporting event of them all. Australia v England in a contest for world domination. 140 years of history encapsulated in a little urn. So many great moments - Botham's 149*, Laker's 19 wickets, Warne's 'Ball of the Century' - what moments will this series provide for us?

I remember when I was young and free staying up downstairs, midnight to eight in the morning horizontal, birds chirping and people starting to go out, with empty beer cans and stuff about, while McGrath is just about to complete his final over.

Chris1989 Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 When I had my hip replaced in 2010 it was just before that awesome ashes series where Cook and KP were on fire - I was up all night because of the pain, so having cricket for company was perfect!

DieselDaisy Posted November 23, 2017 Author Share Posted November 23, 2017 I should probably point out that when I said ''birds chirping'' I meant the avian kind, outside, at dawn. I (unfortunately) did not possess a personal harem! I would say that first day was honours' even. Old-school test cricket with England digging in and frustrating the hyped Aussie seam attack, but they struggled with Lyon and Australia will be happy they got Cook and Root out cheaply.

Terrible (from an England perspective) but at least there has been some fight here at the MCG. I have a feeling Australia will struggle in England 2019 and England will reclaim them. Same old story: England struggle on fast hard Aussie wickets and Australia struggle with English wickets that seam and swing laterally. (Both struggle in Asia on raging turners.) Only South Africa really travel well these days. Definitely a problem for test cricket, re-addressing the home-advantage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, I think they should have the one day series prior to the ashes not after. Let them get used to the conditions to make it a bit fairer.

DieselDaisy Posted April 8, 2018 Author Share Posted April 8, 2018 (edited) English cricket season starts in earnest on the 13th. Get your mitts and thermal underwear on and grab your flask of tea. Ireland also play their inaugural test match (Pakistan in May!). Edited April 8, 2018 by DieselDaisy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselDaisy Posted May 8, 2018 Author Share Posted May 8, 2018 (edited) I have been watching, since Friday, this astonishing game of cricket, https://www.telegraph.co.uk/cricket/2018/05/07/durham-following-256-runs-behind-conjure-astonishing-46/ Durham followed-on (Leicestershire needing 148) and won the thing by 46 runs. - James Weighell 7 for 32!!!! Probably the greatest, most exciting, sporting event (Days 3 and 4 really) I have witnessed in person.
