The Death of Australian Cricket
I would like you all to take a moment to remember the glory days of Australian cricket, from the first instance, when Allan Border and his men reclaimed the Ashes in 1989 with batting totals of no less than 424 runs per first innings. Since then, under the impressive leadership of Border, Taylor and Waugh, The Australians have dominated for a decade and a half of cricket.
But all good things must come to an end.
Last night, admid the fading British light, and set aganist several heartbreaking dropped catches and missed chances, Australia's dominance in Ashes series cricket was finally set to rest. I suggest we all burn a bail for rememberance.
Oh, and make the poms pay like hell next season.

In a time of ever increasing pressure for sportsmen to perform, where money has become more important than the game itself and personality is valued over skill, we should all take a step back and remember the most important thing of all regarding this Ashes series.

I think we should burn a cricket ball and send its ashes to Ricky Ponting as a reminder of the balls he didn't have throughout the whole series.
But all kudos to the English team - they played extremely well, and took the rewards for it. They thoroughly deserved the win.
