Ibbo, I think its you that needs the reality check. In the 130 years since 1883, Australia have held the Ashes for approximately 76.5 years, and England for 53.5 years. Australians have made 264 centuries in Ashes Tests, of which 23 have been scores over 200, while Englishmen have scored 212 centuries, of which 10 have been over 200. Australians have taken 10 wickets in a match on 41 occasions, Englishmen 38 times.
The Ashes have returned to their natural home and the balance of the universe has been restored
We won the ashes at the second bite at the cherry. We lost it to England and now a few months later saying we won it. Like having 2 soccer or rugby World Cups not every 3 years but every few months to give the loses a 2nd chance..
