He's had a great career and last series, and I hope he does well tomorrow. Wonder if he'll take Anderson with him? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be very surprised if Anderson carried on after this series,if he wasn't Anderson he'd have been dropped by now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. He's not had a great series... having said that, I hope he takes five tomorrow! If he does go it would mean we are a bit inexperienced, but there are plenty of options and potential....if they can stay fit! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coxyhog Posted July 31, 2023 Author Share Posted July 31, 2023 Last ball faced as a batsman....in an Ashes test....gets a 6. Takes the last two wickets in an Ashes test as a bowler. Legend is a vastly overused term in sport,but for Broady it is very apt. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both him and Anderson are now the past, though both were absolute legends. Its now players like Tongue and Archer who are the future, Wood is not young and very injury prone, as is Archer unfortunately. I like Robinson as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pumpuynarak Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 I really enjoyed this Ashes series and virtually watched most of it. Great entertainment with tension like i could never imagine, ok cricket's a slow game but these guys made up for it. Roll on the next Ashes series in 2025. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
