Ashes Cricket 2019
Discussion
I couldn't find a thread for this.
I'm planning a road trip to Yorkshire for the last week in August with my 13yr old son.
Want to take him to Headingly for the Ashes as we'll be based in Leeds - It's all sold out -
Anyone have a clue as to how much it might cost from the touts outside to get in?
As an aside that CWC final was nail biting to the end

Thank God I can now post again - I just suffered a 1 month ban for a tongue in cheek post in the joke thread that allegedly wasn't laughable at all - still who's laughing now eh? I've got a grin on like a Cheshire cat and I'm Yorkshire born and bred.
I've really missed being able to post on this thread, today was a roller coaster of emotions, head in hands to rebounding off the ceiling.
I had a gut feeling Root wouldn't make it to lunch, then thought Bairstow will go soon afterwards.
Head now in hands.
Losing Butler was just crass incompetence. Woakes - I still can't decide.
Then Archer, he's got a decent First Class Average and can obviously bat a bit, his defensive shots were nigh on perfect straight bat and all by the book, and then he hit a couple of fours and I was thinking 'calm down lad' looked like Stokes told him to cal it down too.
But when you're at the other end watching your partner hitting fours and sixes you've got to think 'well I'm going to have a go at doing that'. A bit more maturity required on his part I think.
Leach played possibly the most important innings of his life, I cannot imagine for one minute what it must feel like to face Cummins/Hazelwood chasing those last few runs.
And that brings us squarely back to look at Stokes, I'm lost for words.
Started his innings playing test cricket and then went into ODI mode - I'm utterly delighted for him, what a knock. What a result. Two more to play now, it's going to take something special, the lads just need to understand we need everyone to put 30 - 40 on the card when they bat.
(When is Smith back?)

Is there a glimmer of hope?
Until Smith is out then I would say not.
