Re: Ashes 21/22
I heard England are contemplating signing Novak Djokavic to be their opening batsmen in the next ashes series. They are impressed it took Australia two weeks to get him out.

@ Toomer
A big thanks to England for helping Australia reclaim the no:1 test cricket ranking (& T20). Our ascendency to the top coupled with your humiliation has been quite pleasing to witness.....

Re: Ashes 21/22
Yeah England have played about 20 tests away from home last couple of years, living in stupid bubbles trying to keep the game going. Apart from against England last Ashes when is the last time Australia even made the effort
