Absolutely overjoyed to have won the Ashes. There was a time growing up when I didn't think I'd get to see England win the Ashes in my lifetime. This is now the 5th for me and by far the most unexpected.
Amazing turnaround from the 13-14 whitewash, shambolic World Cup and everything else over the last 18 months. I thought we'd get trashed in this series. As much as I tried to stay positive after Lord's I thought we were probably going to lose 4-1 from there. Absolutely stunned that 6 days of cricket later we have the Ashes back. Interesting to see where Australia go from here. Clarke and Rogers gone, surely Haddin and Watson too. Voges too possibly. The Marsh brothers don't look test level players. Could be a very different team for their next series.
Was hoping the 5th test wouldn't be a decider too as I'm off on holiday next week and won't be able to follow much of it.
