The England Cricket Thread

Just got back from the football, Brighton vs Forest... Forest fans are very fond of Stuart Broad!

The train platform was basically everyone singing about the ashes. Including a lot of 'love' for mitchell Johnson!

Mrs Evangelion pulled me away from the cricket before the end of England's first innings, because she wanted a movie night instead.

On reflection, it was the better choice.

What did you watch? Ashes? Out of the Ashes? Angela's Ashes? Or perhaps Backyard Ashes?

What a Yorker. Any tail ender would fall to that.

Why is he showing his stumps like that though.

Sankari · 8 Aug 2015 at 11:25

Hazelwood! 9 for 243.

Jimbeam3678 · 8 Aug 2015 at 11:26

Not long by the looks of it!

Get ready to go barmy

So they've lost two wickets for 1 run in nearly 30 minutes

Was the plan to see out the next 3 days?

Kenai · 8 Aug 2015 at 11:34

For all the talk of good English bowling, how have we given away 40 extras in this innings?

Cosimo · 8 Aug 2015 at 11:40

253 all out. It's Ashes party time!

Semple · 8 Aug 2015 at 11:40

All done and dusted!

el_dazza · 8 Aug 2015 at 11:41

YEEEEEEESSSSS

Sankari · 8 Aug 2015 at 11:41

Lyon! Australia all out for 253, England wins the Ashes.
