OK I have a live feed of the cricket to watch the credits roll essentially as the Ashes have been well and truly secured for many days.

Typical Harry Potter credits, never ending.

The last rights are about to be spoken on this game and the series.
Work expands to fill the time available, so why do today what can be put off until tomorrow.

Great to see Siddles celebrations. I think there was a little bit of "take that Aussie selectors".

You don't take 2 off the last ball of the last over and then you take a single off the first ball of the very next over. :?

Well done Clarke, you and Lara Bingle can go home at the young age of 34 and raise a beautiful model looking family.

Yes, well done England.

And good win here from you Aussies.

Equal record for the shortest Ashes, eighteen days (R5).

In all the years of watching the Ashes I don't recall ever watching the trophy presentation. I didn't realise they never presented it until the end of the series maybe that's why not to mention the fact that the cricket coverage would go off the air as soon as the match finished and usually return to the news or "The days of our Lives".

So this may be a first.

Yep We just didn't quite get it right over the entire series. Can't blame the bowlers though, I thought over all (both teams) bowlers were exceptional. :salute

Six for Sid, Five for Mitch3. Good effort by them, on a batting wicket.

Best wishes to Captain Funky and Ginger on their retirement.

It'll be interesting to see how England do in UAE and SA where they don't have control of the pitches.

Sets up NZ and Australia this Aussie summer.
