The Ashes: Australia in England 16th Jun - 31 July

[Arthur Crabtree]

Then Stokes gets Cummins with a no ball!

How many times!

[Arthur Crabtree]

Broad gets Cummins... with a bouncer.

Might as well declare.

[sussexpob]

Lyon comes out at 11... Fair play

[Arthur Crabtree]

Starc, 4 off 24 balls.

Declare yer mugs.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Lyon goes hooking a short ball. Aussies defending a huge total.

[sussexpob]

Crawley departs for 3...not a good start

[Arthur Crabtree]

And Duckett has been dropped.

[Arthur Crabtree]

And then Pope goes.

Last chance Joe.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Good return to the side for Mitch2.

[sussexpob]

Game is pretty much over now...

[Arthur Crabtree]

Honest Joe is gone. So now even miracles can be ruled out.

[Arthur Crabtree]

And Brook follows. Starting to feel a bit awkward.

[sussexpob]

And Brook follows. Starting to feel a bit awkward.

Starting to bring back memories of 2019

[Arthur Crabtree]

Some welcome resistance at the end there.

[bigfluffylemon]

And into miracle territory.

With regards to the baseball debate, I agree and am not advocating for a complete change in approach. But maturing it so rather than relentless attack all the time for its own sake, you have a bit more situational nous. It's not as if that's particularly radical.

You do have to wonder how the series would be looking if England could hold their catches and stop overstepping.
