THE ASHES

The cricket season has started! The Ashes between England and Australia.

The Ashes are back again,The greatest rivalry in cricket,Cummins and Baggy green caps are here,Got away from their winter blues.

 Captain stokes looks mean as ever.Would Joe Root hit fours and sixes,And get another hundred for England?Would Barmy Army sing lalalala Joe Root?

 Jimmy the GOAT in early forties-Is still the best bowler.Johnny threw another a wobbler,And got his gloves behind the wicket. Day one ended with England on top,Joe Root scored a HUNDRED,England declared early,Put Aussies to bat a few overs. Am I visiting Lords in London,To watch the second test?Where am I going to lie down,When my fatigue and pains begin?

 You’d wonder what this poem is about-If you’re not a cricket person.It’s the most intelligent game,The national game played in English Summer.
