Congratulations to Australia – they deserved to win The Ashes. I woke at 2.30 to watch the last session but the quality of play by the Australians was just too good and the mountain of runs too high. The BBC cover the story
The Australians, gracious in the win, suggested the 3-0 scoreline did not reflect the fact that England played some good cricket. No doubt there will be post mortems, criticism of selections et al – but there are two good tests still to play and the Aussies will certainly go for a 5-0 scoreline – so still good cricket to watch which will make the Christmas and early New Year period interesting for cricket fans. I shall certanly be watching.
Now… a spot of work!
