Is there anything that says Australian summer more than sitting at the beach in 40 degree heat, listening to the #Ashestest on the #ABC #Auspol

Innit amazing how, regardless of the pitch, when a team plays every delivery on its merits, and doesn't go the #AI #Twenty20 slogfest. Two centurians and an incomplete 500 innings. No #BazzBullShit for me thanks.

I like the analysis from Ponting, Bumble and JL, but there's only so much Brayshaw braying and Tritesticulosis from Hayden et al that I can stand. Even the Barmy Army droning is preferable.

Why TAF would you look for an edge when the replay clearly showed the ball hit the ground, and even the keeper thought it wasn't a catch. #Ashes #AshesTest #Cricket. At that point, an edge is moot.

Is Australia “one and free” or “young and free”?
I thought it had changed to “one”, but the anthem was just sung as “young”.

No, really. An eight wicket loss is as good as another moral victory for the England #Ashes team. #AshesTest

I think the big takeaway from the DRS and ball tracking in this series is that the technology isn't worth a pinch of shit.

To the #channel7 commentary team, Carey is only out if one of two things are true. A pommy fielder is a brilliant ventriloquist, or your Snicko technology sucks nuts.

There's been nothing wrong with any of the #Ashes pitches. The MCG is a bit too green, but not unplayable.
What the problem has been, is all round rubbish batting. That's both teams, Australia has just had a few better batting displays.

For the channel 7 commentary team on the constant whinge about the MCG weather, 16c and 19 km/h wind gusts, Sydney ain't that much better.
17C and 22 km/h winds with slight drizzle in the area. So, a bit more cloud cover. Grow up.

I was pushing for it in 2012 (see article I wrote for @independentaus.bsky.social - above) that cricket test matches,in view of the "modern dynamics of the game",should be shortened from 5 to 4 days.
The first "2 day" #AshesTest in #Perth backs my argument.
