Okay, saying England is half as good as Australia is an exageration. After all, Australia only lost 6 wickets to England’s 19. So mathematically, England were only slightly better than 30% of Australia’s effort. Let’s be g...(more)

I was expecting an innings win for Australia but Paul Collingwood lived to do what he claimed he would - bat out the game for England.Australia could not close what really should have been their game, especially after they ran through Engla...(more)

Day 2 encapsulated everything I love about Ashes cricket. Spectacle, drama, seesawing fortunes and two satisfying sessions of sticking it to the Poms.
The first session was bedlam. The English tail went the tonk and put on 99 runs. What to ...(more)

When Mitchell Johnson’s opening spell on Day 1 was flat and insipid, Ricky Ponting responded by spelling him after only 3 overs. I was surprised and impressed. Ponting as a captain tends to let things drift. This on the other hand sma...(more)

The Ashes build up in the media was overwhelming to say the least; but that was nothing compared to the over drive they went into today.I woke up to over a 100 new entries in my RSS Reader. That has never happened before and I have over a 1...(more)

All set to dominate the day, Kevin Pietersen undid all his hard work with a stroke of immaturity, haphazard haplessness and idiocy against the might of Nathan Hauritz. In isolation, the moment mirrors his career as a whole. All set to domin...(more)

This just in, Brett Lee will miss the first two Ashes Tests due to an abdominal tear. Lee’s reaction:
"I’m gutted."
Boom boom.
It’s a blow to Australia considering the form Bing showed against the England Lions. Particul...(more)

It’s a somewhat futile exercise micro-analysing the Australians’ form in a single tour game, as if the destiny of the Ashes depends on a single innings. However, as the 1st Test doesn’t start until for another 3 days, well...(more)

Jeff Thomson talks like he bowls - slinging volleys that rip, destroy and ruin their intended target. He once rated Shane Watson lower than an allrounder’s arsehole. Now he lets loose on Ricky Ponting’s captaincy abilities:...(more)


Michael Vaughan and Steve Harmison have been left out of England’s 16-man Ashes training squad - which suggests their Ashes dreams are over.
Whilst Vaughan is centrally contracted, only a man with a brain the size of Phil Tufnell̵...(more)

Cricinfo continue to dole out the legspin love (and no Hewy, legspin love is not creepy, it’s a beautiful thing). This time, Christian Ryan lobbies for Bryce McGain to play in the Ashes and empathises with his pain at Newlands:
