putrevus Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 Didn't they have two back to back Ashes last year and now they are playing again next year. So when is England going to play other countries like Pakistan and WI this is just ridiculous. so it has become just three countries playing with each other .
SLICKR392 Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 Most one sided Test series(s) in Cricket followed by Ind-Pak Test series(s).
undisputed chap Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 :sick:Why don't they play tests against lungans,WI,bangbros away. Elitist attitude this .
gattaca Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 Lol let the borefest begin. If you play tests too frequently between two countries too often and you know the result. It is not fun anymore. Australia going to win another trophy.
sachin34357 Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 home and away series every 24 months is understandable but i think these lot have it every 18 months.
Iconoclast Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 No more FTP ... big three can keep playing with themselves as much as they want ... this is what India and Srini wanted.
rkt.india Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 Why don't they play tests against lungans' date='WI,bangbros away. Elitist attitude this .[/quote'] I guess SL is going to play tests this summer before India.
undisputed chap Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 I guess SL is going to play tests this summer before India. I mean sl vs eng in sl Bangladesh vs eng in Bangladesh &WI vs eng in WI
putrevus Posted May 13, 2014 Author Posted May 13, 2014 No more FTP ... big three can keep playing with themselves as much as they want ... this is what India and Srini wanted. take your your hatred hat off and stop being a moron for sec, Ashes has nothing to do with BCCI, before the big three Era they had back to back Ashes last year. I did not see any outcry then.
brendan07 Posted May 14, 2014 Posted May 14, 2014 Guys it is back to the normal rotation after this. England requested it due to the World Cup.
putrevus Posted May 14, 2014 Author Posted May 14, 2014 Guys it is back to the normal rotation after this. England requested it due to the World Cup. why what has world cup got to do with Ashes
brendan07 Posted May 15, 2014 Posted May 15, 2014 why what has world cup got to do with Ashes Crowds, money and above all coverage. Soccer (football) is the number 1 sport over there!
Scarves Posted May 16, 2014 Posted May 16, 2014 Yeah the Ashes were supposed to be this year but due to the Cricket World Cup in AUS/NZ, they moved it (The Ashes) a year earlier which means with all the prep it would have been tough. However England are coming to Australia for ODIs along with India who are staying for the tests. This is also the fact that Australia will be going to UAE in October which meant that normally you could have the Ashes but with the World Cup and all the prep that was added it would not have worked. 2015 will be back to normal followed by 2016/17 in Australia
Straight Drive Posted May 16, 2014 Posted May 16, 2014 Ashes is the most lucrative series for ECB and CA as the cricket fans in those two countries follow it more than anything else. I do enjoy watching Ashes whenever time permits. I have seen some memorable innings and devastating spells in that series.
