You know it's bad news when you are trawling the internet for ticket refund information...
According to the ECB major match tickets refund scheme:
For days one to four of the Test Match: If, for the day for which the ticket is valid, play does not take place OR play is restricted, you will be entitled to a refund of only the match ticket value subject to there being: (a) zero to 15 overs played - a full refund; (b) 15.1 overs to 30 overs played - a 50% refund. In no other circumstances can money be refunded.
ps. As you know, I live in Spain and just looked up our weather forecast which reads:
33°, 35°, 42°, 38°, 43°, 37°, 33° and full sun for the next seven days!!! That's hot!!!
By my reckoning we did 21.1 Aussie overs and 5 England overs, so should get some money back on the 5 tickets. Rather had a full days cricket though.
I need to eat humble pie to friends who I took the ****** out of who have day 4 tickets, telling them that it would be all over in three days.

Re: Ashes Cricket
Excellent test match. If only we could keep Wood and Archer fit we'd have some real pace.BlueinPLtwenty wrote: ↑Sun Jul 09, 2023 8:35 pm England win by 3 wickets; Mark Wood Man of the Match

Re: Ashes Cricket
England currently trying to get a first innings lead in this final test.
England scored 283 in that First Innings
Australia are currently 248 for 8 England into the "tail"

Re: Ashes Cricket
Australia put on 49 runs for the ninth wicket so ended the day with a first innings lead of 12 runs as their last wicket fell leaving no time for England to go into bat.

Re: Ashes Cricket
The difference between the two sides is so different. England with Bazball whizzing through like it is a T20, while the convicts are happy with 2-3 runs an over.

Re: Ashes Cricket
If they had taken that attitude (or one more aggressive than Labuschagne's 9 from 82 balls) then they would be in a commanding lead. But I take your point the balls out approach of the tailenders showed what they could achieve.BlueinPLtwenty wrote: ↑Fri Jul 28, 2023 11:11 pmThe Aussies in that 9th wicket stand were averaging seven runs an overblue architect wrote: ↑Fri Jul 28, 2023 7:01 pm The difference between the two sides is so different.

Re: Ashes Cricket
England all out for 395
Australia need 384 to win
Broad`s last shot in test cricket was a six. Now he needs at least 5 wickets to really end in style!

Re: Ashes Cricket
Have I missed the plot or are Australia playing out for a draw on a flat wicket, giving no help whatsoever to the bowlers? And that they have no hope of winning this match?
