Ashes Cricket

Me and Freddy went to see the final day of the England v Australia test match at Edgbaston today.We were in the Eric Hollies Stand, named after a player that Dad used to watch play for Warwickshire at Edgbaston in the 50s...England were about 100 ahead and needed to bowl Australia out and then knock off the final runs to win the match. It looked good when England got a couple of early wickets...

But Australia managed to bat all day so the match ended in a draw...

The crowd made their own entertainment. We were in the stand with the Barmy Army and the Aussie Fanatics, so it was never dull...
