[Bomber]

Good win in many ways.

Lost toss, bat last on a road pitch.
Highest run chase for us in 50 years over there.
Bazzball tactics created uncertainty in many areas (field placements, strategies etc)
Boisterous home crowd.
Finally get up in a close one after so many close losses in recent times.

On to the next test and no doubt english tactics to continue and will provide more entertainment, which is good for test cricket.

Great to get the first win put out of the way, definitely helps boost the teams confidence over there. Hopefully they can continue to win.

Love him or hate him you have to admire Broad for always wanting the ball in his hand. Compare that to old pea heart Jimmy who with the game on the line and a new rock he squibbed it and handed the responsibility over to a park trundler.
Weak as piss
5 of our top 6 batters did stuff all and we still won, once they click we will brain these hacks

Do you think Warner gets another match based on his average score in the second innings? 9 and 36 in this match.

Just another GIAE whinge. Nothing to see.

Edit. With GAIE suspect vision it may be a true comment.

A one sided comment though. Never heard australia called the enemy.

Most English don't care about australia and see them as plucky colonials.

Australia is well down the list of our "rivals", you're not significant enough.

Upset Pom cricketers throwing bat and cap at Cummings. Poor Pat running for his life. The picture says it all.

I actually agree with this comment that we arent your rivals.
Youd have to be at least close to being as good as us to be rivals and since youre not even close to being as good as we are you couldnt be our rivals.

Considering we are the top test nation England is only one of many rival wannabees trying to challenge us.

[eagleboy]

I have to give Kudos to Stokes. I believe he may be the best captain in test cricket atm. He is trying something new all the time.

Are you talking about cricket, sport, economy, world power, military or something else?

You should probably hope it's not one of those.

Thought it would be pretty obvious that we are talking about Australia VS england test cricket in an Ashes thread but i do understand that its a concept that you are struggling with.
