So the Ashes are home!
Twas a truly great day for Aussie cricket fans. Although i must say when Freddie and KP were still in, a few hearts went in mouth. But luckily Warney spun us out of that one and we have reclaimed the precious urn.
Unfortunately that now means the next tests will be dead rubbers (which wehn the MCG is expecting 100,000 in attendance) could be dissapointing. But alas, i really enjoyed the day. Especially getting to meet former champions like Michael Holding, Michael Slater, Mark Taylor, Beefy Botham, Bill Lawry and Ian Chappell. I also had the honour of having a brief conversation with Mark Nicholas who seemed appreciative of our embracing and acceptance of him into the infamous Channel 9 Commentary team.
But yeah it was a good day, best test of the series so far and hopefully the English continue to gof orward witht he positives they cant ake from the game, i.e. Harmy's and Hoggy's bowling, Cook and Bell's resolve, KP's dominance, Freddie's return to form, Monty's bowling and so on.
P.S. I love those Barmy Army'ers. They really are an entertaining mob.
