This series was a genuine banger with scant few days of outright dominance but a changing of the guard is inevitable
In the hours after Stuart Broad wrapped up the most clippable, clickbait-able Ashes in history came one last hunk of red meat for the internet: did England snub Australia for the traditional post‑match drink? Or were the tourists a bit too keen to leave early?
Whatever the mix-up in communications here – something later rectified by the players meeting on the sticky floors of a London nightclub, according to a 4.11am tweet from Ben Stokes – it does seem a bit of a shame after sharing a memorable 2-2 draw, not least for the early birds and non‑drinkers among them.
