  • England Seeking Hat-Trick of Ashes Wins for First Time in Over 30 Years Submitted By: Moneta Communications Tuesday, 9 July 2013
    England Seeking Hat-Trick Of Ashes Wins For First Time In Over 30 Years Submitted by: Moneta Communications Tuesday, 9 July 2013 Alastair Cook will lead out his England side on Wednesday morning with the weight of the nation on his shoulders as it is the turn of the cricket team to continue a marvellous summer of British sport. England will be bidding to retain the coveted Ashes crown for a third straight series, making it a hat-trick of victories over their old foes for the first time since 1981. Australia have been all-but written off by the media and cricket aficionados and it looks like England's urn to lose! For over a decade, the English cricketing public would head into a clash with their Antipodean rivals with trepidation and could almost sense achievement if they managed to gain a solitary win from the five-match series but along with the Australian demise in recent years, the English setup has grown in stature and become one of the most revered teams in test cricket. Andrew Strauss and Andy Flower galvanised the English side and captain Cook has duly continued the positive mindsets of the players and his ability at the top of the order twinned with the talent of the likes of Kevin Pietersen, Jonathan Trott and James Anderson has seen them create a magnificent spine to the test outfit. Whilst English cricket has blossomed since that epic Ashes win in 2005, the ‘baggy greens’ have become a mere shadow of their dominant past and the setup went into disarray as Mickey Arthur was handed his marching orders from the coaching staff only a couple of weeks before the start of the first test at Trent Bridge.

  • The Demise of Kevin Pietersen | Nouse
    Nouse Web Archives The demise of Kevin Pietersen Page 1 of 3 News Comment MUSE. Politics Business Science Sport Roses Freshers Sport › News & Features Comment Varsity Roses College Cup Fantasy Football The demise of Kevin Pietersen Beth Jakubowski weighs in on the reaction surrounding the end of Kevin Pietersen’s England career Monday 10 February 2014 Image: Fishyone1 The stage was set for a Kevin Pietersen hundred. England had lost wickets, the weather was turning, Old Trafford was buzzing with anticipation and England were on the brink of winning the Ashes. Kevin ‘Maverick’ Pietersen strolled to the crease knowing that one good knock could seal the Ashes for his team. On that day in the 2013 Ashes series, Pietersen did make a hundred. But as he crawled through the nineties Ian Bell was making hay at the other end of the crease, launching sixes into the stands for fun. It was the wrong way round surely? Pietersen’s century was slow, fraught with tension, defiant and utterly lacking in entertainment. That was the last meaningful contribution Kevin Pietersen made to the England team. So, was he worth it? He was worth it in 2005, he was worth it when England won the T20 World Cup, and he was worth it when England went to world number one. But after the text message debacle that cost England their greatest ever captain, he was a dead weight. The decision made by the ECB last week has led to all sorts of pundits and fans claiming that England are now ‘less entertaining’ without Pietersen.
