Put up a bit of fight in 4th innings but was never going to be enough. Shame couldn’t at least make 4th and 5th test have something riding on it
I will still enjoy the 4th and 5th tests but the interesting issue now is England avoiding the whitewash

The Aussies will want to grind them in to the dirt.
 
That feels to me like a bit of a bittersweet win, partly because we could've been more competitive earlier in the series with better preparation and partly because the pitch was barely legitimate for test match cricket.

Beggars can't be choosers though and England played better in the conditions in front of them

Got to be one of the worst Ashes series ever.
You've got:
An incompetent England team who can't play test cricket
A series that was won without any contest
Only one test has gone to 5 days, two lasting 2 days
Malfunctioning third umpire

All the hype for such a damp squib

That's a great innings from Bethell. I havent really watched him outside the England setup so I didnt know what the hype was all about. I found out today though

India V Zimbabwe T20 World Cup


From the BBC

Tashinga Musekiwa smacks a consolidation six down the ground and into the stands.

Zimbabwe are now 173-5 - but they still need over 50 runs off their final four deliveries.<laugh>
 
Nz absolutely destroyed South Africa who are bigger bottlers than the England mens football team!

Big game tomorrow, think we’ll just sneak a win v India who haven’t looked brilliant so far n

Neither have we though either. We just seem to keep finding something from somewhere to get us over the line. Won't complain as long as it keeps working though.
