This looks potentialy to be an absolutely awful Ashes Series .
Too much cricket being played .
Twenty / 20 has taken it down to the lowest common denominator .
Heard yesterday that Bangledesh were ranked higher than Australia in that format .
There certainly appears to be a berefit of not only quality players but also the characters
that gave the game its uniqueness .
In the 4 years since the last visit , it's only 2 cricketers , Johnson & Hughes , who have emerged from the pack .
Mind you , the '89 touring team weren't given much hope and not only did they return triumphant 4-0 victors , they also layed down the foundations for a 20-year dynasty of Australian superiorty .
Is it not being shown on terrestial tv in the UK ?
What about your anti-syphoning laws ?
How can a Home Ashes Series not be on the list of protected events ?
