I say!This morning at Cardiff, in the 65th instance of The Ashes, England won the toss, and chose to bat. England are playing two spinners, and this means that the Aussies will have to bat last on a wicket which is known to turn square. The main Aussie fast bowler, Brett Lee, is injured.
It's obvious that the Ashes are almost England's, and we can look forward to seeing a similar image to the above, but with the Ashes raised above the England captain's head, in the media, later in the summer.

Update. Hmm, some minor hiccups as England lose three early wickets on the first morning's play, but nothing to worry too much about, I trust.
For those who like to relive Ashes moments of the past, and that must surely include just about everyone, there's a lovely Ashes Archive at the BBC. Only this morning, Doviko was telling me that he wished he had more time to listen to and watch these archived sound recordings and videos.

If Doviko would post a link to his all-time favourite cricket page on his blog, that would help narrow things down.
I say!
I suspect that Doviko would rather watch cricket than do the ironing.
