A fun theme that’s covered in depth in one of the chapters in our fantastic new book, The 50 Most Ridiculous Ashes Moments.

We've spurned left-armers, shed the spinner and now lost one of the fast bowlers. The gravitational pull of the right-arm fast-medium attack is too great to resist.

Via my brother:

Vim is England fans and media (and possibly Stokes).

Colin is McCullum. ##Ashes 🏏

To Old Trafford for the fourth Test, where Alex and Dan are blown away by the wind, bemused by Ben Stokes' celebrations and fed up with the relentless antics of Steve Smith. We are England Cricket. #Ashes 🏏

My new favourite genre of England pundit is the one that keeps repeating ‘this is not a strong Australian team’ in ever-increasing frustration. #Ashes 🏏

Carey robbed. #Ashes 🏏
Not even sure I’m joking here. I’ve seen a player get POTM for slips catching (Tubby in a rain-affected ODI). This might be the best case I’ve ever seen for a POTM for pure wicketkeeping. (Yes, the runs too. But I’d still give it to him based solely on the glovework.) #Ashes 🏏
Seen enough. Carey POTM for me. #Ashes 🏏

Starc and Boland would’ve had this wrapped up before tea/dinner/whatever the break is.

Very into the idea of England reviewing every ball to waste time until the rain arrives. More of this thinking, please. #Ashes 🏏

No second innings century for Head. England clawing their way back into the series. #Ashes 🏏

Clever work from England to avoid facing the new ball under lights. Australia completely outmanoeuvred in that session. #Ashes 🏏
