  6. I found an old journal of mine from 20 years ago and was interested to note in January 2006 that:

    1. we'd just had the hottest December on record in Sydney #Heatwave

    2. the USA had revealed its underbelly with its response to the #NewOrleansHurricane

    3. increasing #terrorism was hanging darkly over us (John Howard's new terrorism laws had just come in)

    4. people were clutching at their mobile phones to feel loved and needed

    5. and we'd just lost #TheAshes 2005-06.

    When people say things started to go downhill with #Covid, perhaps they forget that the world is changing all the time, and sometimes for the better.

    I felt low and depressed at the state of the world 20 years ago, and yet I was cocooned compared to now. Yet we cope and manage and go on and find new ways to bring change for good.

  7. Listening to Test Match Special (The Ashes: When Bazball went bad and one very proud dad): bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0mt0cwb

    With the Men's Ashes over, Henry Moeran is joined by Stephan Shemilt to discuss the latest revelations from a disappointing tour. Plus, we hear from Jacob Bethell's father.

  8. Apparently Mitchell Starc didn’t have any alcoholic drinks for six weeks before the start of The Ashes. He won the player of the series award and was instrumental in Australia's 4-1 victory over the seven weeks of the series.

    Several of the English players had a well-documented alternative approach to drinking in the run-up and during the series.

    The Starc anecdote is from this 20-minute video: youtu.be/jGQQYXKpRRU

  10. Australia had a few nervous moments but safely chased down its 160-run victory target before tea on the final day of the fifth Ashes test on Thursday for a five-wicket victory and a 4-1 series triumph. japantimes.co.jp/sports/2026/0 #moresports #theashes #england #australia #usmankhawaja #stevesmith #benstokes

  14. This is Mitch #Starc's 2nd man-of-the-series. He got the 2023 Ashes one as well. Just a fantastic bowler. Oneof the greats. In Perth, he averaged 145kph in 40 degree heat. A great servant of test cricket.

    Not exactly the second string bowler as some like to call him.

  15. May be if the Barmy Army weren't so relentlessly (noisily) supportive of their team, the English might play better. Perhaps a little pointed silence might incentivize England more than non-stop clapping.

  16. Not wunderkind Green involved in another possible run-out! 🙄

    #TheAshes

  17. Hope Uzzie isn't too emotional now to bat properly.

    #TheAshes

  18. Another wicket for Starc. 32 in total. England all out.

    Australia need 160 to win.

    #Cricket #TheAshes

  19. Bethell out for 154.

    Starc gets him to take his 31st wicket of the series.

    England lead Australia by 145 runs with 1 wicket remaining.

  20. Good to see that England now have a number 3. If we find two decent openers and a new players in 4-11 we'll be a half decent side #TheAshes

  21. I hope Jacob Bethell gets left alone to grow as a cricketer after his good batting performance in the current Test.

    And doesn’t get a load off expectation pressure as the “future of England cricket”.

    Technique change, or regime change, is needed in England's management so that traditional cricket techniques can once again flourish.

    Fingers crossed it happens.

  26. England are hanging on by the proverbial finger nail due to Jacob Bethell who has played a magnificent innings, ending the day on 142 not out.

  31. Stumps on day four in Sydney. England are 302-8 in their second innings, 119 ahead overall. There have been times when Australia have flunked small final innings chases - Headingley and Edgbaston in 1981 being two such cases, the SCG in 1894 another, and there was one in 1998-9 when Dean Headley did the damage, as well as one against South Africa in the same era when Fanie de Villiers was the destroyer. Australia definitely favourites though.
