    Went out to the garage to put a coat of stain on a piece of timber I'm making something out of. Took the cricket with me on my phone but was expecting it to fizzle out. Every time I move from the phone to get the time of stain or wash my brushes we take a wicket. 

    Desperately looking for more bits of timber i can stain. 

    Mrs is gonna be wondering where I am.
    National emergency. I'm out of wood stain.

    So what do we take from this series? Sensible Bazball  a success? Where Sensible means don't play like the hour at Lords? Or a total failure as we didn't win the series? Or something else?
    Best Ashes series since 2005. Test cricket the winner

    Bairstow hasn't really put a foot wrong with the gloves since Lords
    How quickly you've forgotten Smith's 1st innings non run out.
    The game would have been won already if he hadn't messed that up.

    Broad and Moeen will both love having two left handed batters at the crease…

    Still showing  RUNS  to win rather than WICKETS.

    Sky thinks the Aussies are going to win it then...😄

    We were all focusing on Broad’s last Test match, we forgot about Moeen going back into retirement… what a great final session he’s having
    Yes but the difference is that Moeen doing it is a bit like "the little boy that cried wolf". Fully expect him to be called up again in four years time.

    When you listen to him though, he's a kid with a man's perspective on the game

    Be typical if England can't get these bleeding tail enders out!

    Dry up the runs from one end and wait for one to spin out of the rough at the other

    Anyone know the current WinViz figures? Not that I always agree with them!

    Don't think Broad (or any player for that matter) should be moving the bails....

    Like Kent at finishing innings off.
