You are classing the greatest most entertaining sports final ever aside tiddlywinks?
And not Salty a tiny bit?
I'm sure they have 'World Cups' and finals too...
Are you still drunk from last night?
I dont give a hoot about ODI or T20, never have, never will. That's why I dont watch any of the matches with any enthusiasm nor post on threads about them. England did well, it was a great win for them, but it's not my cup of tea. If you think I am a bitter bellend because I dont like ODI. Then you are a twit.
Shall I call you a bitter bellend for not enjoying Aussies Rules Footy? Nope, so cut it out.
Test matches are king. Stokes showed why that remains true yesterday.
Well done, England.
Bring on the rest of the Ashes.
I do enjoy a bit of Aussie rules as it goes. Don't really understand it but I can understand how someone could get into it. Not sure about the shorts mind.
But when you are talking tiddly winks and chess, come on, you did deserve that bellend jibe.
Anyway good luck with the rest of the Ashes.
The truth is we had 2 days to score 359 runs and stuggled im happy we won but its a test match and yet agin it only lasted 4 days.
^ enjoy your tiddlywinks, sport
Love it!
After Ben Stokes heroic innings at Leeds in the third Ashes Test and England’s dramatic win by one-wicket, tournament’s sponsor Specsavers announced that they will provide free glasses to England spinner Jack Leach for a lifetime. England allrounder Ben Stokes on his Twitter account requested this to the company after Sunday’s miraculous win.
Jack Leach arrived at the crease at the time when England was struggling at 286/9 and was 73 runs away from the victory. However, Leach accompanied Stokes staying at the other end which helped England to steer to victory.
Specsavers replied later to Stokes tweet and confirmed that Jack Leach will get free specs for rest of his life.
And his other tweet:
Ben Stokes

I fucking (don’t care if I get fined) love Test Match Cricket and I love englandcricket #ashes
@jackleach1991 is a legend
It's a real shame that the Ashes isn't shown on one of the free-to-air channels in the UK because games like yesterday would definitely encourage more youngsters to follow the sport.
There was a great atmosphere at home in the UK in 2005 when it was broadcast on Channel 4 and mates of mine, who had no interest in cricket, were glued to the telly with the rest of us.
Unfortunately, this was never built on, and you see the comments on the ECB Youtube highlights videos with probably 80%-90% of them being from India and Pakistan fans. Even they're wondering where the England fans are !
Ball-tracking on an appeal for LBW against Ben Stokes
Specsavers (Australia) have countered and offered umpire Joel Wilson who officiated in the 3rd Ashes Test, after his disastrous decision to give Ben Stokes 'not out' in an clear LBW decision which could only be attributed to his obvious poor and short vision, a similar deal of free glasses for life.
Neither Joel Wilson nor the ICCUA (International Cricket Council Umpires Association) are yet to reply.
Maybe they are deaf as well as blind
Poms are bitter and twisted no matter what. It's 1-1 and they carry on like they won non stop for 16 years. Oh wait....
Give them nothing, Dil. From the shithouse Chappell and Botham to Clarke and Anderson, and everything else in between.
If you can beat this lot, do it and and hammer it home because, mark my words, they'll certainly do it to us if the boot is on the other foot. Don't they call it pommie-bashing?
Great sides they've had, but they're the cricket world's worst losers and equally bad winners.
Well, no, we don't. We accept that we were witness to a great batting performance yesterday, rode our luck and are still fearful of what may happen in coming tests after being put to the sword for many years against your great teams.
Unlike you, however, who are pretty much reviled throughout world cricket for your cheating, arrogance and general behaviour. As your posts perfectly exemplify.
They sure are a bitter lot. Can't handle the fact that Aussies have won far more matches for decades. Who would want to be a pom? Nobody. They are all in Pattaya cause they can't get any at home.
