The Ashes

Isn't the real most important cricket match in the world is India vs Pakistan?

Yeah technically you're prob right in terms of populations and global interest.
But interestingly, India and Pakistan are both aware of the history of cricket and its roots in the England/Australia rivalry. The Ashes is still considered the preeminent match-up. A bit like saying Yankees and Redsox is the pinnacle in baseball or Celtics/Lakers - when in today's currency it's all about Warriors and Lebron teams etc
 
Day one coming to an end, the Poms are on the back foot. Perfect.

Ummmm.. I don't know what "an asshes" is but I do know cricket and England 235/4 is hardly on the 'back foot' given that 500 is considered a VERY good score for a first innings total and England still has 6 wickets left.

What a pile of *****, there is only one game of cricket that matters and that's beating the English, oh I hate them, I hate them so much it gives me energy, I wake in the middle of the night to hate the English, have to go outside and kick the the cat, **** the English.

8/270 we are well on top. Still looks like we might lose two days to rain, so a draw is most likely.
 
Usman Khawaja is mine atm. He's out though.
Rubashov - Khawaja has been screwed by the selectors. Agree or disagree?

Think he needs to be dropped, they've talked about his potential for years but he's never lived up to it, time to move on.
