These are the top 10 Ashes batsman I have enjoyed watching since 1990 onwards 1) Steve Waugh – To have an average of 58 in Ashes test shows the true class and guts of the players and that was what Steve Waugh was all about. His best innings have to be the 157 not out at The Oval on one leg in 2001 then in his last Ashes innings scored 102 at Sydney 2) Allan Border – The one batsman you...

Even fewer people have credited Ian Bell with being a perceptive cricketing sage than with being a Test class number three batsman, but when he warned at the end of the first day at The Oval that people shouldn't pronounce judgement on England's first innings total until Australia had batted, I decided that he had a point. A fairly obvious and trite one, granted, but a point nevertheless. I've been...

While we all speculate about who will be picked for the forthcoming Ashes teams, I wonder how many, if any, would hold their own against the best players of the past generation. It set me thinking who would make the XI for each country based on Test cricket in the last 30 years, so naturally I had to share my thoughts here.... It's particularly hard to select an Australian team. So many great players,...

The lack of snarl and bite in the current Australian team makes one remember the grizzled campaigners of old These Australians are way too nice for their own good. With the exception of their muzzled captain, Ricky Ponting, a rehabilitated larrikin of the old school, and possibly Peter Siddle and Ben Hilfenhaus, who are not yet fully house-trained, they are seriously lacking in the essential ingredient...

Ian Bell is the likely replacement but he is the antithesis of Kevin Pietersen and must bat down as low as six to minimise disruption The loss of Kevin Pietersen is every bit as significant to England's Ashes chances as was that of Glenn McGrath toAustralia four years ago. The cracks can be papered over and indeed players, understanding the need to step up, may yet play above themselves as a result....

The Ashes captains have shown little regard for the etiquette of the game with their appeals and claimed catches A lingering smell of enmity hangs over the Ashes now, the likes of which we haven't had since ... well, 2005. It is an enduring myth – perpetrated by the famous picture of Andrew Flintoff crouching down to console Brett Lee after victory at Edgbaston – that the series four years...
