Superb performance and fully deserve their victory. There wont be a parade as all along the management have said this is a stepping stone to becoming the number one team in the world to celebrate it hugely would signal that you have reached the target and this team has not. I remember the 2005 parade but that team had peaked and beat a top class Aussie side and that was basically their target for about 18 months beforehand.
Full credit to this England team, very professional, disciplined and far too good for the Aussies.........Easy money. Now on to the tennis.
There will be around 40,000 there for the last day. Melbourne (for the previous game) holds over 90,000
Judging by the turmoil at Glamorgan, the Welsh are better out of it
Most of us couldn't care less about cricket. I acknowledge that those who like cricket are passionate about it as you seem to be. It is clear now that there will be no parade. Just as well as I think their performance has been good and I would not like to see them slighted by people not turning out to see them. Prime Minister is going to have a reception for them. So, sarnies and MBE's seem to be in order.
