Ashes Victory!

Its all over!  Australia has just won the Ashes 3-0 in just three tests and brings England’s “reign” to an end in only 15 months – a record for the shortest amount of time a side has held the Ashes.

A lot of the post match rhetoric was “England played well, but Australia played brilliantly”… I disagree in part.  England were pathetic!  They have been so shoddily prepared, captained and coached that they have made a mockery of their achievements of 2005.

This is not because they lost – you can be brave and gallant in defeat – but the reality is they have really been a mile behind the Aussies and baring bad weather in either Sydney or Melbourne, Australia WILL win 5-0.
