The Ashes 2021/22

Stig

The scorecard literally says w0w.

Wow. What a pathetic excuse of a team. Embarrassing

I've been pacing my drinking, expecting to be up for a decent length of time.

This is seriously depressing…  ECB need to put the toy that is the Hundred aside and start focusing back on red ball cricket.

They won't for all the reasons I've said. Red ball batsmen with solid techniques under the age of 20 will not even get contracts at counties unless they can play in their sleep 360 degree white ball shots. In fact, how many red ball only contracted players are there because there are plenty of white ball only ones!

We are going to lose by an innings before lunch on the 3rd day. 

Just bring them all.home now. Forfeit the next 2 matches.

Best neck it and go to bed.

Is a 21-ball six-fer the fastest ever?

Big William

Anderson off the mark, looks like Bradman compared to what’s happened in the last 15 minutes.

Ties Broad's record!

54 ducks in a calendar year equalling our own record. Abysmal.

Werent the Ashes born out of an English  cricketing disaster way back when ?

I think a new urn should be made to commemorate this abject display.

Never ever have I felt so embarrassed. I don't even think a Charlton squad has made me feel this low 

golfaddick

Dont know why Butler took that single.

Thinking about a not out perhaps. 

Callumcafc

68 all out.

Australia win by an innings & 14 runs. After scoring 267. Pitiful.

golfaddick

I think that is about the lowest England cricket can get.

Sack the board
Sack the board
Sack the board

TMS using the word "humiliation" a lot tonight. Fair.

It seems the Australian score of 267 is the second lowest score in history to result in an innings victory.

SIXTY EIGHT!!!??????!!!!!!!!

England couldn't even last until lunchtime on day 3.

What a joke of a team and a captain. Got it wrong from the very first call of the first test. 

golfaddick

Its another collapse. Once Stokes & Root went then it was like dominoes. 

Callumcafc

Hameed 0 & 7
Crawley 12 & 5
Malan 14 & 0
Root 50 & 28
Stokes 25 & 11
Bairstow 35 & 5
Buttler 3 & 5*
Wood 6 & 0
Robinson 22 & 0
Leach 13 & 0
Anderson 0* & 2

Leuth

Unbroken, unbowed: Jos Buttler's doughty, brilliant 5* has justified his place for the next seven series

golfaddick

No point in playing at Hobart or wherever they are thinking for the 5th Test. NO  POINT  AT ALL.

Exiled_Addick

Absolutely pathetic, even by standards of the extreme depths England test sides have managed to plumb historically. Abject. Utterly abject.

Incredible stuff.

Out of 22 knocks, 13 failed to get to double figures and 19 didn't get past 25.

 A bigger Urn. Get all the English jokers ashes in it!

Fingers crossed for a COVID outbreak in the camp so we can cancel the last two tests.

Check out my comment on the Club Cricket thread for a rumour, if true, will serve to confirm that money and quick cricket is now ruling the game

Meeley mouthed words Joe. Blah  blah blah
