Ashes 2019

I saw something about it, it is usually when the player retires. Basically the player and the wife are used to the player being away all the time. When they retire they are home far more and (if the wife doesn't work) they get under each others feet a lot more. That was what whichever ex player I saw this documentary about was blaming it on anyway, said virtually all the players he played with had been divorced at least once and usually more than that.

 

He’s gone down hill since that hit to the head, and since it’s messed with him.

 

Let's hope Smith has an'all

 

Didn't Nathan Lyons say something along the lines of ending peoples careers pre one series?

Typical Aussie nasty bollocks.

Kind of funny his own career is likely to be effectively ended by him fumbling that stumping. Funny as.

The Stokes leg before was bollocks too, it brushed his front leg before it hit his back leg, hawkeye just didn't pick it up.

Not out anyway.

Again, nice Karma all round.

 

Yes he did. That bit him hard on the arse

 

Luck. In the red box thing, whatever that’s called.

 

Love this photo. Tim Paine and Dave Warner rushing to Nathan Lyon to congratulate him on running out Jack Leach and retaining the ashes

The beauty of the pic is Lyon has already fumbled the ball and the other 2 are yet to realise

 

Its great when Karma returns

Tim Paine has tried to change the Aussies conduct after years of being bad winners and sore losers. So fair play to him but people have long memories still

 

After going to hospital a month ago my granddad has just passed away.

He got me into cricket and was an old school English gentleman.

He wasn't able to walk in the end and I was desperate for something positive to happen in the Ashes as he had it playing in his room and was pretty much all he had to stop him getting bored.

That Ben Stokes innings and historic test win was his last experience of the Ashes.

Not a bad way to go!

RIP.

 

Very good way to go

Sorry for your loss .

R.I.P.

 

Cheers!

 

RIP mate. A great memory to take with you. A good mate of mine died recently. Huge cricket lover, and he missed both the final and Stokes' innings.

 

Thanks mate, sorry to hear your loss too.

I wanted to show my granddad the final on DVD but it wasn't to be.

Not sure he heard much of Stokes' innings as it happens but he did have the Ashes on to the end.

 

James Anderson out the rest of the ashes

I would bring in Sam Curran for Chris Woakes at Old Trafford

 

How long is his run up? The ground must shake.

 

We were away for the last Test. Just watched the last hour on Sky Catch Up.

Stokes is already one of the greats. To engineer a 70+ partnership like that so the rabbit faces less than 20 balls is ridiculous.

 

Jofra Archer has an English father and English citizenship.
But some ****wit with a bald head and prominent veins thinks he's a foreigner.
