    Australia are very, very good.
    England are decent, but a bit short on international quality and prone to doing daft things. Like losing with a 5 wides.
    Though that wasn't as bad as earlier when Bell landed one off the strip, followed by Jones tipping the ball round the 1st slip post to the boundary.

    That was one of the bits that prompted my post.

    Looking on the bright side, we made it through to the final only one other nation managed that.

    Yeah, I decided no to Trent Bridge ashes due to the price. I'm only a casual fan and it's too steep for my level of interest.

    I'm not sure that sport is really marketed for people who want to watch the sport any more. It's transitioned to more branded events for 'experiences' and to create 'moments' often as 'content'. Watching village cricket is a lot more interesting than watching test cricket. I shall be going to attenborough on saturday, and will be having real beer, from the bar, in an actual glass, while wandering around the boundary rope to pick the position and view that I feel like at the time.

    (probably not actually facing the pitch very often).
