The Ashes 2025


Got themselves into a position where they had a little bit of an outside chance, and then Smith absolutely threw his wicket away. Sums up the series with the bat. Not enough value put on their wickets, not enough fight to get through tricky periods like a new ball, and not enough hunger to bat for a long time and stay at the crease.

The series obviously wasn't lost today but over the course of the series the batters have been nowhere near good enough and also not wanted to do the hard graft that's needed in test cricket.
 


"we thought a few lagers would clear our minds and steady our arms when at bat. we've all had a terrible case of the wofts. What else should we have done!?!"
