What happened in the 2005 Ashes?

< 1 minute read

We’re going on holiday in a bit. The ECB have foolishly left a minuscule window between the end of the World Twenty20 and the start of the Ashes and we’re using it. We’ve done stuff for you though, so that you don’t miss us.

Coming up this week, we’re taking a look back at when Australia last toured, for the Ashes series in 2005. This should get everyone in the mood before the first Test of the 2009 series. We’ve tried not to bore you, but one word of warning: The Edgbaston Test post is a bit of a monster. We hope you’ll take the time to read it though as it warrants more words than the average Test.

See you next week and try and keep your name-calling to the comments of this post.
