Fresh from their Ashes drubbing, the England cricket team are flying back to Blighty, though there won’t be any cheering crowds at Heathrow to welcome them home. With their international careers having come to an inglorious end, some members of the touring party may be polishing up their CVs, as they seek employment as coaches or media pundits.
The women’s Ashes begin this week, with three Twenty20 games (two points at stake for each match), one four-day test match (worth four points) and three one-day internationals (two points each). With the series ending on February 8, the first team to reach nine points will claim the Ashes. I’ve opted for another month’s viewing with BT Sport, and hope that England women will give a better account of themselves than the men.
