The Ashes 2015

England cricket can do that.

2nd ODI on today.

This format is all wrong, the ODIs should be before the ashes, then have the tests and then the t20.

After the ashes is done, nobody cares about the ODIs. Which on their own would be a great little competition.

Couldn't agree more, the Aussies being over here has kind of lost it's buzz.

What a catch from smith , Hales is struggling .

[iantr]

Is it just me or is Taylor an embarrassment with all his mis-hits and hopping around? I hope he's bought a lottery ticket for tonight!

[Petrol Only]

That lacked class from smith. But to be expected from the modern day cricketer.

Should have revoked the appeal for that decision on Stokes.

Stokes knew exactly what he was doing. Being out of your crease & seeing the bowler trying to throw down the stumps, reaching out behind you to prevent the ball passing is not a defensive action.
If it'd been an Aussie doing it, we'd have gone bonkers if he'd been given n/o.

Eoin Morgan on fire

[Amirhussain]

Could be on for a very tense finish here....

[Amirhussain]

Massive over for England. Cummins being taken to the cleaners by Plunkett.

[Amirhussain]

Boundaries galore

Morgan's going to run out of partners here

All over. Aussies win by 64 tuns to take a 2-0 lead

The crowd aren't happy.

[Amirhussain]

Why Moeen Ali batting down so low?

Nonsense, he just threw his hand up in self defence as he was going over. There's no way a player could decide and then put his hand out to stop the ball hitting the wicket in that split second.

It was just a reaction to protect himself. Watch it full speed not in slow motion.

Utter nonsense

Smith getting booed again. He looks uncomfortable about what happened really. Totally lacking in class.

So you think it was intentional?

Yep. Ball was miles away from hitting him on the body.

It doesn't really matter. You were never winning that game
