Why do the ashes have a price sticker on the bottom?

There were a few sweaty palm moments as the score started mounting, and it didn't look like anything was going to take them 2 off the crease - short of nuclear ordnance lol........

Exciting series to watch (which makes a change from an English perspective).

It's all unrealistic crap requested by people who want pie in the sky actions performed without an understanding of how things work and who can't grasp reality.
