The Ashes

[Liverpool]

ffs

[Shaggy]

Maybe we're gonna lose 5-0 after all, lol

[RichC]

Nobody ever beats them at the sodding ground but yeah I wouldn't be shocked at a 5-0

[EwarWoo]

30% chance of rain tomorrow.

[Buzzo]

With Aussies only need 56 runs needs to be nearer 100% chance of tropical storm.

The worry for England is that some of the new guys batted quite well, and they still got hammered.

[RichC]

Bairstow accused of headbutting Cameron Bancroft.

[Irishnev]

Looking at the teams before hand it looked like a Smith vs Root series and first blood to the Aussie captain

[EwarWoo]

Love rooty but he's not quite a match for Steve Smith. Best in the world at the moment and has been for a while. His home stats are ridiculous.

I think, as expected, we're a little stuffed without Stokes.

[Leyton388]

Such a disappointing last session from England and with the allegations against Bairstow it's appears to be an utter shambles.

Need to have a rethink for the second test.

Need Stokes back and Cook to remember how to bat.

[Buzzo]

Stokes at Heathrow apparently.

[Liverpool]

[EwarWoo]

Makes sense. Get in nick a short flight away from the ashes.
