Herro, Aussie Dlongo flend, you wanna buy some .
This no spam, this top dollah!
uggy boot Just after lunchtime on Tuesday, an enormous
tropical storm grabbed Adelaide between its teeth and
didn't let go for the next five hours.uggy boot
uggy boot Thunder rattled windows. Lightning stabbed
down. Rain came in so hard that you could barely see
across the road.uggy boot
uggy boot If you could, it wouldn't have been a surprise
to spot the England team dancing through the puddles like
Gene Kelly. Two hours earlier, under a bright blue sky,
they had taken the last six Australian wickets for 66
runs to complete an innings victory with the sort of down
under dominance that many England cricket supporters
thought had died with Wally Hammond.uggy boot
uggy boot In the preceding 55 years, England had won just
two Tests at the Adelaide Oval. It has been a quarter of
a century since they last won a match in a live Ashes
series in Australia, and eight years since they won any
Test here at all.uggy boot
uggy boot Australia had not lost at home by an innings
since the great West Indian side of 1993 punished them in
Perth. They have only ever once lost by a bigger margin
in Adelaide in Test history. They must now win at least
two of the remaining three matches to have any chance of
regaining an urn they used to almost own.uggy boot
uggy boot But this was about something more than just
statistics, remarkable though they were.
Since their last successful Ashes campaign away from home
24 years ago, England have grown accustomed to defeat
after demoralising defeat to Australian teams that were
fitter, faster, angrier and plain old better at batting
and bowling.
uggy boot In that time they have been thrashed,
humiliated, laughed at and patronised. There have been
false dawns, dog-day afternoons and long dark nights of
the soul, none worse than the mortifying 5-0 whitewash of
four years ago.uggy boot
uggy boot To be present when the roles finally switched
was like watching the world turned upside down.uggy boot
