Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Sorry, my answer was wrong - me being stupid and tired.

We play *home* ashes series every 4 years. And *away* ashes series are also every 4 years.

Thus there is 18months between a home ashes series and an away series, and then 2.5years from the away series to the next home one.

That's why we should be playing away next winter (2014/2015), but it's been brought forward because of the world cup.

That's what I was trying to say originally, but was getting the maths tied up in my addled brain today.

I love the fact we only have to wait a matter of weeks before we go through it all again!

85 days to go......

That's until the proper cricket. None of this hit and giggle one-day stuff

What I want to know is why all the Women's Ashes stuff is being played in the SE. Headingley didn't get a test match for the men's series, why not hold a women's game there instead? Would be interesting to watch some Women's international cricket, but, like everything else it seems like there's a SE bias to where the games are held.

Durham and Worseley have matches I think, don't they?

I was surprised to see 2 consecutive matches at Hove, but I guess it also depends on which grounds are available around all the county games going on....

Saw some of the Women's T20 on Sky last night. Sarah Taylor is a proper player.
