£25 for a month. One of payment and not locked in. Not a bad deal.Usually make an effort to watch the Ashes but not having BT I think I won't lose any sleep over this series.
They had a warm up game v lions but agree not great preparation.5th test has been pulled from Perth which is good news for England as we always get tonked there. Love an ashes although this one is going to be odd not least England have had no warm up games to prepare.
I would normally be all over the Ashes series and excited to watch it but seem underwhelmed by it this series. I am a big believer they shouldn't have traveled to Australia and see how the Aussies like it when someone pulls out of a tournament late (Rugby League). Having Stokes back in the team will have a psychological impact on both teams but not sure what his performances will be like.bit weird being on BT too. agree, feels like we'll get absolutely stuffed...... but u never know
I don’t think we willl miss Archer as much as many people make out. I recall how disappointing he was in those 2019 tour Tests.BT sport presumably doesn’t have advertising unlike Sky (who have the rights here) so surely a plus?
As for Archer too much is made of him in my opinion. He came over here two years ago and was pretty much dealt with mercilessly and ended up looking like a trundler.
Well if it weans people off Sky it’s a good thing. They have dominated the TV subscription service for so long. As a VM customer BT Sport comes as a package. Think it hasn’t helped the build up that nobody is able to travel to watch the series and will be interesting to see the size of the BA made up of expat residents.It's definitely slipped under the radar.
I only found out it was on BT last month. I couldn't believe it. Although it removes any temptation to get up at 0400 and watch a session before work (I've done that plenty in the past)
I remember a former missues waking up and saying 'what the f*ck are you doing?' as I'm sat watching it on sky go on my phone lol.
I guess with it not being on sky I've missed all the build up etc. You'd normally be getting wall to wall ashes debate and highlights of old tests etc.
I'm not overly confident. Unless we've somehow found an actual top order batting line up. We will be the usual 67-5. We never put on a 400 run plus score so our bowlers have anything to work with. You really have to feel for them over the last 2 years.
Oh never knew that, might give it whirl then. Couldn’t believe when I heard on the radio it starts tonight.£25 for a month. One of payment and not locked in. Not a bad deal.
The Aussies are in slight disarray with the recent happenings, but despite this and the fact that they are no longer allowed to use sandpaper, I reckon that they will win the series comfortably.
