Lucky break for Smith. Stokes failed to control catch. Whew...
Geez they bloody whinge
You drop a catch, call for a review knowing it wasn't a catch, then complain you lost a review
Bahaha

Not watching. We've already won the ashes, but this whingeing thing is nearly as good as the little urn. Really happy that we've made them complain so much.
Will the rain intervene? Just putting it out there.

Commentators suggesting an hour or 90 break in play. If so, draw seems most likely outcome, and also English players and coach complain that if rain hadn't intervened they would have won, and they thought they played better cricket across the series.
English weather? Maybe they should have played the series in Australia.

Another batting fade out. Suppose it was a fair result, but for a moment there the win seemed possible. Going to be a number of big changes in both sides before next Ashes series. Overall, IMO, an enthralling series.

Yep. Engaging series.
Missed it by that much.
Darn.
Until next time chaps.

Cheats!
We won.

In the āspirit of cricketā Ben should have thrown the ball back to the umpires and asked for one that was like the one weāve been using.
Big news today. Aussies snubbed by England. No post match get together. Well Baz did say they wouldnāt be having a drink with us.
And the game. We got close. 334 in a fourth innings was a huge effort. Day 1 dropped catches proved decisive.
The future. This is an old team so some turnover is going to happen. Iām not enough of a cricket tragic to know whoās coming through.

Update: there was a getogether albeit much later. At a club. Excuse was they went overtime with formailites so no invite to rooms.
Lordās Tavern?
Iām sorry but they are a humourless bunch of prats. Glad we donāt have to think about playing them in test cricket for over two years.

Glen Maxwell, century off 40 balls, finished 106 from 44 balls. Some audacious shots. Wow.
Yeah, the flat track bullies were out again. Not a Warner fan boy, but his innings was better in the context of the game. Sadly my interest in cricket has waned with this current group. Some superb players individually, but TEAM ethos sadly lacking. They do not epitomise the fighting spirit of teams from bygone years.

They'll have to work hard from here.
Just so annoying to have 2 out already against whingers.
