We started the final day of the first Ashes Test in the series being played in England needing 174 runs to win – and overnight, the Aussies won a thriller, beating England by 2 wickets in the 1st Test. Skipper Pat Cummins hit the winning runs, with reports calling him the “hero” of the match – although the official player of the match title went to Usman Khawaja for his 2 impressive innings with the bat. And while Test cricket has got a bad rep for being boring – this Ashes series has already been one of the most drama-fuelled contests for years… England’s captain Ben Stokes has been orchestrating field positions that have been blowing people’s minds, there’s been a predictable blow-up over sledging (and this time, it’s actually the English calling our players bad names…), and there’s also been some great cricket. So it’s one match down, 4 to go. Come on, Aussies, come on…
