Charming propaganda from Sydney Telegraph
Sydney Telegraph
Must admit that all this Ashes build up is quite humorous.
Quote:
Australia have won the last eight Ashes series (in 1989 4-nil, 1991 3-nil, 1993 4-1, 1995 3-1, 1997 3-2, 1998-99 3-1, 2001 4-1, 2002-3 4-1.In all that time, England have won just one "live" match (first Test 1997). The other wins were in dead rubbers where compassion might have stayed Australia's hand.In one of the Tests a car backfired outside the ground and a player said loudly: "Good God, Mike Atherton's shot himself."
