The Ashes. Fifth Test Australia v England @ Blundstone Arena, Hobart, 14-18 January 2022

Oh, the poor batsmen! About time bowlers were given the opportunity to be something other than the cannon fodder they've been reduced to in modern cricket.

Give me Test cricket where the batsmen have to work to survive over the early 2000's with scores of 3/550 any day.

Virtually 10 wickets in a session with all of them at night. Please tell me how the pink ball is working with both pink ball Tests over in less than 3 days.

 

[Santana]

Some of those sides in the 1990s were absolute dogshite.

They put up a lot better fights than this

 

[KBLT]

Imagine if Sydney had decent weather

 

[Burtonsgottago]

Lol Warne still getting around Wood, probably 5th best bowler for the series

He has his favourites and doesn’t let up

 

[boxxie2022]

Robbed by not being able to use the quicks in the last 10 overs in Sydney. Emphatic never the less

 

[Bedi]

This series was just an absolute slaughter, that England side looks completely broken.

i loved every moment!

 

[Marshland]

Pumped at the result! If not for the overs lost at Sydney this could've been another whitewash.

 

[deanc]

Oh dear oh dear, England 10-56 - yep, 10 wickets for 56 runs...!!!!!

 

[Crankyhawk]

this going to be all over tonight. Aussies surely go the extra half an hour

not needed lol

Reminds me of the dees in the neeld years.

Darren Gough did

 

[Milang_Panthers]

Can we play Zimbabwe next time rather than this mob please?!

 

[Coasters7]

Worst English team ever?

I don’t remember a point where they were actually ahead of a match. There were plenty of opportunities, we weren’t impeccable either, but they just failed to capitalise time and time again. Rain saved them from what should’ve been 5-0

 

[Around the Wicket]

If Green didn't struggle with the bat so often throughout the series he'd be a man of series option, numbers with bat and ball are good.

 

[Headless]

Gee, how good for that person who caught Green's vest.

 

[Jimthegreat]

Green MOTS
Head MOTM

I got Boland as MOTS.

 

[Joffaboy]

And starc is no longer top wicket player despite one more test and playing another day nighter

Jesus you are a miserable twat.

19 wickets
38 with the bat.

Jog on campaigner.

 

[Silly Mid On]

Lost all 10 wickets for 56 runs after the opening partnership. Embarrassingly heartless on every level.

They lost all 10 wickets in about 2 hours of play... first wicket just before tea - 738pm AEDST and last wicket 9:55pm AEDST (tea break in between).

Literally bowled out in a session

 

[DEVO]

Head POTM.
Head POTS.

 

[Santana]

Where is the urn?!

 

[outabounds]

If Cameron Green is not the best cricketer in the world in a couple of years time, i will be very very surprised. He is an absolute gun.

Huge series from our bowlers, crazy to think Warnie took 40 poles in 2005, our best this series has been about 20 odd?

Head or Boland for Man of Series?

Channel 7 will now CA for playing England in Hobart, instead of Afghanistan, and reducing the quality of the contest
