Why on earth is there no cricket thread in here? Well let's see how many people combine a love for ESC with an adoration of cricket!

Today's a good day to begin: Thoughts on the current Ashes series in England?

Not a fan of cricket but it is always nice to see England give Australia a hammering.

Ashes, fourth test

Australia 60 - all out, bloody hilarious, they couldn't even make it past lunchtime.

So many new records set! I reckon it was one of our finest days of test cricket ever. It has been fun pissing off the Aussies for a change...

Enjoy playing a bit of cricket casually but never really watch it, I find the scoring too complicated to follow

I don't really care for the Ashes as I have no side to cheer for, but Australia's first innings was... interesting. Today's more interesting game is Zimbabwe taking on NZ in an ODI, but it doesn't really mean much. Last event I properly followed was the T20 WC qualifying tournament, but the lack of streams was a problem.

Ah yes, I struggle a little for live cricket, as here in the UK you can only watch it on Sky. We do, however, have the excellent BBC commentary on Test Match Special (TMS) which is utterly fabulous. They don't really do games without England though, so not really an option for the T20 qualifiers.
