Oh so it's more one of those how-shit-are-England type of records.First English team to win an Ashes series from 2-0 down.
What's your profit/loss over your gambling career?
Started punting at the end of 2014....
50k over 10 years maybe?
Hard to tell, have been banned from some bookies for winning.
Bit risky considering how s**t the weather can be in England and Manchester has very shitty weather.
They were paying like 6 going into the final day. Good thing this bet never happened as this is just a wind up.
Also the talks that England should be 3-0 up are comical. Dead giveaway this is a wind up. Lost all the tosses, had the worst of the conditions, lost the best spinner playing in the series less than halfway through the 2nd game but yeah, unlucky England
That period killed us, Cummins can not let it happen again. Is he finding captaining and leading our attack too much of a mental strain, as he lost it with his absurd defensive tactics after Stokes went cheaply.Australia just losing a bit of composure.

Hope you do your dough.Been analysing the first 3 games of the Ashes since the finish of the 3rd test.
I've come to the conclusion that Australia are cooked. Outside of Cummins and Starc, our bowlers are ineffective.
Lyon is injured.
I've wagered $900 on England regaining that precious urn @ $5
Looking forward to enjoying my winnings.
Congrats Eddiesmith and Plugger on your ashes win.
Wood's overdue for a calf or hamstring strain.So Wood is just going to respect that and not take wickets?
You should take your comedy act on the road.England should be 3-0 up and somehow, they are 2-1 down.
Hope you do your dough.
Is that the only way we can win?Wood's overdue for a calf or hamstring strain.
The Wood factor was key in the first innings, but it's very noticeable how his pace dropped markedly after day 1. He will not come back spell after spell at 150kmh/95mph.Is that the only way we can win?
You went all in, and that meant $900?It is a fair and valid point. But, the momentum is with England, Lyon is out, they bat deep.
Ive gone all in on this bet and im very confident.
England have got us exactly where they want us.
We lost one close match, playing well below our best and in the worst conditions. Time to put your big boy shoes on and accept nothing is a given - that includes inevitable defeat two more times.Is that the only way we can win?

Damn I almost hope it works out for you then, sounds like you need it.
Says the guy who admits to being $50k down on the punt.Don't need the money but this is a surebet.

It's probably worthwhile self-excluding for a while, I think.

Would probably have been the difference in the 3rd test. We just needed 3 wickets.Lyon has close to 500 test wickets . A guy like that is injured ? its a titanic blow that cant be replaced.
I'm already planning on getting a nice watch with my winnings.
There is no way Aus are beating England once in the next 2 tests. No way. I'm disappointment is I can't put more on the English.
