Far from a 13 year old school girl. I'll admit that I only have the joy of test match special to keep me going and didn't see any video footage, but certain people on here are acting like this is the first time in a game of cricket that not every wicket is clear cut.
Did England play better? yes, Did they deserve to win? yes. Did they get some luckly breaks? yes
Not getting to list out the Aussie faults, but your captain deserves a bit of stick. Fantastic batsman, bit of a disappointment as a captain, but not completely fair given who has come before, miserable bastard. Although to be fair he was very gracious in defeat, which apparently many of the Aussie on here are not.
I knew when I started this thread that it would get controversial, things often do during the Ashes and that's half the fun.
