Shame it rained in Manchester. Imagine that broad wicket to have won the ashes…

Yep, could have been awesome

I don’t watch much cricket as I found it quite slow and tedious. But this Ashes almost converted me due to the excitement and how pulsating some of the games were. However any sport getting decided on the weather is quite honestly embarrassing. Won’t waste my time again. Back to the proper sports.

Yes, I think England deserved to win it.

Been an amazing series

It’s rejuvenated test cricket

There’s millions of cricket fans around the world who would have been captivated watching the 5 matches

Cricket was the ultimate winner.

In a 5 test series in England there is always likely to be 1 affected by rain.

Need to look at declaring on day 1 and Bairstow drops than blame the rain.

Spot on. I absolutely loved it. Have not watched test match for a while but right from forst test this was a pleasure to watch. Well played to both teams.

Fine margins, you could argue a stupid declaration and some bad Aussie sportsmanship was the difference between regaining the urn or not

A month of rounders dross now 😴😴😴, great series, England should have won

Aus were unlucky not to win more convincingly than they did tbh.

We won't be winning anything as long as we persist with Bazball

There's been 2 meaningful series since Bazball started and they failed in both.

The series in NZ, which we should have won but drew 1-1 instead after Ben Chokes enforced the follow-on. NZ haven't lost a series at home since early 2017, that would have been a fantastic win.

And of course now losing the Ashes at home.

Australia were also unlucky with the rain. Whenever they got going in the 2nd innings they got interrupted by rain. They also dropped a shet load of catches.

All the excuses in the world don't alter the fact Australia have won the urn. Australia were incredibly unlucky in the last Test that two lengthy rain breaks came just as they had two big partnerships building. Gave England bowlers a rest when they were going nowhere. Also the ball change, what's that all about? Happens far to much. That has to stop.

I think they should get rid of the toss in a 5 match series, England won it 4/5 times this series, and choosing to bat first or second can have such a big impact, they can control the toss, they cannot control the weather.

This happens every good ashes series. People are only interested in Australia Vs England (over here at least). I’ve always preferred test since I was a kid but just don’t have the time these days.

Ben Chokes?? Lol This guy has won 2 World Cups, rejuvenated this England team who previously had 1 win in 17 tests not to mention the countless matches his won single handedly for England.

I could write an essay on why he deserves the name Chokes.

But to summarise, he’s a choker who has cost our team a lot more than he’s helped us win.

He’s also painfully overrated as a player in general. He’s meant to be some great all rounder but he can’t bowl on his one knee and can’t field well Even with the bat, his record is spotty (averages 35).

You're using far too much logic here for #LiquidShitForBrains. He agrees with Sandy ffs
