Ashes predictions

[Lillian Thomson]

Not just Australia are going to win 5-0.

This has to be something a bit left field that probably won't happen but you can award yourself a Chufty Badge if it does.

I'll start with Joe Root not being dismissed for a score between 50 and 99 in the series.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

James Vince not scoring more than 25 in any innings.
Liam Livingstone to make test debut during the series.

 

[Shri]

Clouderson will retire in the middle of the series. Keeping up traditions with his **** of a friend from the previous ashes in aus.

 

[Starfighter]

In the event of injury to England bowler (probably Anderson) Ball will play rather than Overton and will get belted because he's got nothing to recommend for him at test level. That's three in one, and expresses my opinion of Ball's bowling.

Ballance to get a fifty in the first test and then suck the rest of the series.

 

[Bijed]

Broad to get a King Pair at some point, but also make at least one 50

 

[YorksLanka]

Vince failing, Yorkshire to the rescue and England winning 2-1

[Coronis]

Warner and/or Smith to score a hundred in each innings. Maybe not that left field.

 

[Gremlin]

Moeen Ali to be player of the series (both sides)

 

[Victor Ian]

Warner and/or Smith to score a hundred in each innings. Maybe not that left field.

Presuming no games are washed out, are you suggesting that Warner and Smith will score a combined 10+ tons. gtfo.

I'm not an huge fan of the banter king Swann, but you do know he had floating pieces of bones in his elbow, and every ball he bowled despite 2 operations was agony?

 

[harsh.ag]

Maxwell and Khawaja to have a 200 run partnership.

Should have stayed home. Don't take me seriously. I really ****ing hate Swann and Anderson.

Proof that he used his elbows a bit too much imo. We must erase all records of matches that Swann participated in, beginning from the India's tour of England in 2011.

We can leave the 3-0 in UAE intact however since Ajmal neutralised the unlawful bowling of Swann with some of his own.

The guy ditched his team they were doing it tough, stop with the excuses.

 

[stephen]

Yeah I don't know how anyone can defend what Swann did to his teammates that series. Trott I felt sorry for. Mental illness is never a good thing. But Swann? Bugger off coward.

 

[mr_mister]

Bairstow and Moeen to each get 300 runs+ for the series

 

[Black_Warrior]

Cook will not get a hundred.
Hazelwood to get at least 2 x 4fers
Warner to get minimum 2 hundreds, 1 at Sydney
Smith to be highest run scorer of the series
Anderson will average over 30
Moeen Ali to get at least 1 hundred

 

[honestbharani]

The other opener for England will score more than Cook.

 

[Daemon]

The other opener for England will score more than Cook.

Bold cal considering they'll probably have a different partner for him each game
