Hey guys,
I thought I’d give the video a little run to try and capture my thoughts on the first Ashes test.
Yes, England won
Yes, that means Australia lost.
But there is some crap being spoken so rather than write down my wonderfully witty retorts, I’ve spoken them instead.
I cover:
- Ryan Harris
- Australia’s opening 2 hours with the ball
- Haddin
- Stokes & Ali
- Australia’s batting
- The pitch
- Watson’s front pad
…and some other stuff.
It only goes for 6 minutes, so please hit the play button above or click through to view on YouTube.Follow @denniscricket_
Fairly accurate analysis
Thanks Jim Smith
I predicted 3-1 to your boys, I’m not changing either
Spot on.
G’day Dennis, I’ve said 4-1 from the beginning, hadn’t thought about Faulkner, but i like that idea and yeah Watson & Haddin have to go.
DennisCricket_ Very good, calling the right bullshit especially on bowling a lot of media ignored. Nice touch with Dhawan btw.
DennisCricket_ : I have finally written something !!! It involves milk, Powderfinger, the onset of age & the #Ashes
worldofBG where is it?
DennisCricket_ : haven’t put it up anywhere yet
worldofBG You have a DDC logon. Just dump it in there
DennisCricket_ : good point
DennisCricket_ 100% on the pitch excuse. World of difference between a slow pitch & a dead pitch. 4 days proves it was just fine

AJRobertsWriter DennisCricket_ Last week, Deano said about the #SlvPak test that it was not high class. Pretty much the same this one.
Nice to hear the Aussie perspective. Ballance and Bell will get found out in this series. Lord’s will suit you guys more, and a wounded Aussie is a dangerous animal. Both sides who won the first test here in 97 and 05 lost the series. Looking forward to it…
… cricket, huh?
