Three to go tomorrow to win the Ashes then. Would have taken that at the start of the series.

All done and dusted.
And Michael Clarke announces his retirement.

Shane Wane interviewing Michael Clarke whilst both look gutted. Well, Clarke looks gutted, there's not enough organic material left in Warne's face for expressions.

Final test, a dead rubber of sorts but would be nice to make it 4-1. Final test for Clarke and Rogers.
Clarke loses his final toss and England are going to bowl. Time to see how much the Aussies just want to go home...

Hopefully not many share that opinion, the rather half hearted, would be nice I mean. As another way to look at it is 'opportunity to make history as the first English team to win 4 matches in an Ashes series on home soil'. Done it in Australia but never here. |

All done and dusted, a very strange series. Apparently only 18 days cricket in 5 tests. I'm just glad we won't have to see the Convicts here for another 4 years

Bragging rights for four two years. Lovely regardless of circumstances.

Erm, not necessarily. Don't we play them over there in 2017? |

It's not exactly been a classic series...

Nope. Bloody eventful though. Probably the most bizarre series ever. We were better in three out of five. That'll do for me. |

I fully expect the Aussies to not realise what they had till it's gone; Clarke is (was) a superb cricketer and leader.
If space cadet Smith is still in charge in 2yrs we'll have no problem retaining the urn.
