Tabloids: the real Ashes flops
The England cricket team – the second best Test team in the world - are all “Ashes Flops” in the wonderful world of the red tops.
International sport is a do-or-die world, for sure, but may I add to the debate: form is temporary, class is permanent.
The red top columnists should show some respect. England has only lost two of its last 12 Test series, and trounced Pakistan to nil in England in the last outing before the Ashes.
Red top hacks should be grateful that the team are still giving them interviews.
These people know nothing about cricket, so I will put it in language that they understand: playing once in a 15 over ‘slap’ after work on a Tuesday night does not make you an expert.
