Think that @rwhitehead2.bsky.social
has been quite canny with his #Ashes prediction, really feels like the result of the series has the potential to lurch quite wildly if the first Test is anything to go by.

Latest issue of the Cricket Memorabilia Society magazine has arrived featuring the late England & Warwickshire batter John Jameson on the cover.
The CMS run a great annual programme of events plus the opportunity to meet a host of ex-players, it’s well worth joining.

On Thursday 27 November we’re looking back at the 1954/55 Ashes with @rwhitehead2.bsky.social, author of ‘Victory in Australia’. 🏏
England lost the opening Test but went on to win 3-1.
Playing in the last of his five Ashes series was Norfolk’s Bill Edrich.

Excellent line up of Cricket Memorabilia Society guests at @homeofcricket.bsky.social last weekend - Clive Lloyd, Chris Cowdrey & Norman Cowans. Great memories, insight & views on cricket.
Line of the day from Sir Clive: “T20 is an exhibition, Test cricket is an examination.” 🏏

Everyone’s scouring ‘Victory in Australia’ by @rwhitehead2.bsky.social for clues on how England can overcome losing the first Test and go on to win the Ashes. Just like they did in 54/55! 🇦🇺 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
