England were not bowled out on the fourth day of the fourth Test. They were bombed out in less than an hour, to lose by 267 runs. The Ashes series stands at 1-1. But the psychological advantage is with Australia after …...(more)

England have escaped the great innings from Ponting so far: they might even escape it altogether if Australia’s captain did more than dislocate a finger on his left hand when participating in a catch as England’s batting was scorched a ...(more)

It was one of the finest Ashes spells. Mitchell Johnson turned the day, match and series upside down with his burst of four prize England wickets for only seven runs. One moment Australia’s players and supporters were resigned and dispiri...(more)

It is not a case of take it or leave it at the WACA. It is a case of leave it then take it: leave the new ball then take the urn. If, for the first hour of the second …...(more)

After his exploits yesterday, all of India expected a much larger role to be played by Sachin Tendulkar today. But, very unlike him, the test match was completed in less than six overs played. Tendulkar added just 4 more runs while India r...(more)

.... but can they repeat it?Ashes Test 3 Day 4[scorecard]Seems my lunch estimation was a bit generous, England’s last five wickets fell within the space of one hour. The Yeti boy hadn’t got any brekkie and was so hungry th...(more)

I have enjoyed the writing of Ted Corbett, senior English writer, in the cricketing field for quite a while now. His humor is very evident in the articles he writes for Sportstar, almost every week when the English cricket team is playing. ...(more)

England’s batsmen can hardly be accused of putting a foot wrong so far in the current Ashes series, but with the pressure (and with it the weight of expectation that comes with being favourites in the fixed odds) starting to …...(more)

With England 1 – 0 up in the series a win in Perth would see them retain the Ashes down under, a feat which has not been accomplished by an English side for 25 years. With Australia looking to bounce …...(more)

There are some English people who have had sympathy for Australia during the first half of this Ashes series. We won’t hesitate to call these people idiots.
Imagine being hunted by a carcharodontosaurus and then when you’ve some...(more)
