Ashes 2025/6

/GOM it's annoying that the graphic at the bottom always displays "Australia need 4 more wickets to retain the Ashes" instead of how many runs England need to win. No shit, England are 6 down, I can do the math. Please just show a running total of how many runs are needed you clowns.

Anyway, 167 to win with 4 wickets in hand, 2nd new ball just taken. Aus will be exceptionally keen to wrap this up with the new ball, or will start to get a bit nervous.

Looks like they have lost Lyon
Can’t see England getting that close but would love it they at least put the pressure back onto the Aussies for once -
Smith throws it all away in typical Bazball style after playing a blinder. Damn. Game, set and match.

Starc was turning into cannon fodder, but Smith has gone for one big hit too many
I can hear some furious tapping, it's Geoffrey Boycott all the way in Yorkshire writing his latest article......

Fox and Australia both arguably going through the motions this morning.

England win that session, but still unlikely to win the game. Though with Lyon out that opens the door just a bit. The manner of dismissal for Smith was so frustrating...
