Asterisked cricketing victories

[Daemon]

Well they won* the trophy, just tied the match. Bit hollow like retaining the Ashes.

England just have an aversion to winning. When's the last time they won anything of note? Against India in 2018? That's five, barren years. One could call them losers.

I'm no fan of England, but I think @GIMH was referring to the T20 Cricket World Cup.

They also won a series away in SA, which unless you have a Kusal Pereira playing the GOAT innings is v hard to do.

As noted elsewhere, if England winning, especially with a bit of luck, burns you all up inside so much, long may our victories be of the most fortuitous kind.

I'm almost half tempted to trawl back to 2019, there must be some beautiful strops on here.

Well he's not dead, so he's better than Warne.

 

[mr_mister]

Too soon

 

[OverratedSanity]

Yes exactly he did indeed leave us too soon unlike murali.

The salt is just so fun to see.

And obviously, Murali > Warne.

I think any English victory involving a white Yorkshire player should have an asterix imo.

So many questions to answer.

Well I think you're being too dogmatix about this business.

Australia haven't beaten India at all since 2014/15 so England are looking pretty good by their standard.

Also, we've only one TWO WORLD CUPS since then.

Unintentionally correct, that. And the other was T20 – hardly counts either.

England team using the "special potion" between innings which gives them the power to not suck arse.

Perhaps should start a thread about asterisked cricketing trophy retentions...
