We're the laughing stock of world cricket, worst thing is that most people with a brain could see how this campaign was gonna go but the ECB are so plagued by stubbornness and conservativism that they refused to see it. Well this is the result

Goughy is going to blow a fuse at 4 on Talksport

He predicted this and has been banging on about the 0ne day selection and tactics fiasco for ages now

Boycott was brilliant on TMS earlier, spent basically the whole England innings ranting away

I'm cricket-aholic! I watch every minute of England's game and have done for years, the first session today was just simply breathtaking, Stuart Broad take a bow son, they will be talking about you for generations to come!

[MTVN]

This is what an England Ashes win looks like

[MTVN]

It also looks like this

[James]

Bumping this for MTVN.

[MTVN]

How about that!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MTVN]

I can't believe a. just how sheer lucky we've been this summers and b. what a bloody hero Ben Stokes is

Better than the World Cup that win today. This is the ultimate

[MTVN]

I need another drink

How did TiBB have a 26 page thread on cricket

[Cherie]

No idea what goes on in cricket, up to 4 o clock today all was lost, then by the 6 o clock news they had won


Anyhoo congrats Matt, you are the only one who cares

[MTVN]

All was lost! This was the most improbable, unlikely win ever and we never should have won that

[MTVN]

Cricket > everything

Well it beats the fact that Birmingham Bears lost to Northants.

I have got to say though a fantastic performance from Ben Stokes, even if we'd ended up losing the game I still think that his performance would warrant praise as he came the closest to single-handedly winning a team a match that I have ever seen and probably will ever see in a team based sport.

Day one of the second test and the Aussies hitting their stride now at 103-1

Was always going to be a tough series but I'll be amazed if we're still competitive going into the fourth test

[MTVN]

Who's excited for the boxing day test then??

[MTVN]

Day 1 of the Ashes, best day of the year!

I have tickets in the Hollies stand and will be heading to Edgbaston shortly. First beer at approximately 10am
