We have long memories and will no doubt know exactly how to repay these buffoons lack of respect (with interest) when they come here in a couple of years for their usual down under Ashes belting

Which of course will enable you guys to continue to take the moral high ground .

You shouldn't get upset by The Boys of The MCC ,The OBE they can't handle their Pimms as Mark Taylor accurately put it.

Hardly a squabble Edward Norton just taking the sanctimonious upper slopes.

You's are both right. Thats the thing.

I don’t see any indication they are playing the victim. They seem to have moved on from the Bairstow incident. It’s the media who can’t let it go.

That's it.
The media are running their own agenda to stir/exaggerate/sensationalize anything and everything.
That's the world we're in (and not just cricket.....)

Just as the dust settles on the Ashes series, here's a throw back to a photo of Stuart Broad with his father, Chris Broad, an English opening batsman at that time, the photo taken at Trent Bridge in 1991:

Yep and after all that risk from Crawley, his side did not win the series.
Khawaja was methodical and was on the team who collected the trophy.
Bazball was entertaining, but it did not walk away with the Ashes.
Having said that, Crawley had a superb Ashes campaign and was probably the real player of the series

 

[Buttface]

Uzzy not happy he’s been penalised for slow overs.
Bazball might be aggressive but it’s as slow as any other cricket played. Slow over rates in in 4 of 5 tests for poms and we got hit with 1 slow over penalty, in the rained out test?
Slow over laws need change, something that actually motivates the fielding side to run into positions if the are behind.

It’s hard for teams playing against Bazball as they are hitting a lot of 6s.
Seriously though, England is hopeless getting done over 4 times. What’s the total cost?
I’m sure Aussies got done in the first Test.
