So there I was listening to the 3rd day of the 5th Test live from the Oval in my living room on Radio 5 Live. When suddenly my phone rings.
'Hello, it's Si (One of my bosses), what are you doing tomorrow?'
'Nothing?' I respond.
'Okay, meet me at The Oval at 7am tomorrow' he says.
'Cool.' I say.
The next day i'm there at 6-30 am my mistake, bloody London transport, always gets you where you want to go.
Anyway, so it was an amazing day I have to admit although at first I was surpremely confident of England beating the Aussies for most of the day it was only until Freddy Flintoff ran out Ponting for 66, whilst the Aussies Captain was building up a solid partnership with Mike Hussey that I actually thought England would wrap up and win the Ashes before the 5th day.
Anyway, it was quite an achievement, both sides were weaker than in 2005 and as the Series wasn't on terestrial TV and I am no longer at Uni I got to watch alot less of it, which is inevitable.
