Stumped?

I am a bit of a cricket fan. In September 2005, I was at the Oval (with Doug) for the final day of the Fifth Test when England won the Ashes back from Australia after one of the most exciting series of the modern age.

And now it has come round again, this time at their place. After a terrible start to the First Test at the Gabba in Brisbane, England eventually remembered what they were supposed to be doing there and put up some decent resistance in the second innings, but ultimately the Aussies' first innings score of 602-9 declared was just too much and we were defeated by 277 runs. Bah. 1-0 down and here come the told-you-so crew...
