England haven’t lost the Ashes already.
Tuesday, November 28th, 2006Did we really know that we would lose the Ashes after the first ball of the first test? If we do we will all look back at that delivery and say it was obvious. But Vaughan is going to be back before Christmas, the shock of the size of the defeat will galvanise the team - we will return at Brisbane much stronger. The pitch is usually more suited to the English game, it will seam and swing.
England can easily pull back to one all, and then the series is back in the balance, with England holding the momentum (Can momentum be held? - Ed)
The message for England supporters everywhere is don’t give up hope. There is easily enough talent in this team to fight back - and remember England only need to draw the series to retain the Ashes.
