Ashes series

The Ashes series have proved to be a battle for supremacy, between Australia & England for decades. This year too it is no different.
Though Australian team were confident of winning the series 5-0, the injuries to Pat Cummins and Hazlewood was a set back. However, on Day 1, Starc proved to be their trump card, who right from over one proved to be unplayable. He bowled his heart out to bowl out the England team for just 172 overs in 33 overs. Thanks to the bazzball strategy, England was able to score at a rate of 5+ per over.
Like Subham Gill, Steve Smith would have thought that the whitewash was on. Alas, Ben Stokes and Archer had different plans to plot the downfall of the Aussies. They are trotting at 123 for 9 and most likely will concede a slender lead for England.
Hope Ben Stoke and his men fight like the South African captain against India and set up a winning total to bowl out Australia to shatter their 5-0 dream. Well, the Ashes series is on fire!
