Ashes 2013

In 2005, when England regained Ashes, i was thinking that future Ashes contest will be back to the same intensity.  Come 2007, when England toured down under with Flintoff at the helm, they lost the series 5-0 and the Ashes story was the same again with Australia dominating

Then come the next 2 Ashes in 2009 and 2011 with England in full control.  Fighting spirit of the Aussie waning, 2013 Ashes is so one-sided that Aussies are not even fighting.  Day 3 of the Lord's test will be a huge test of Aussie character and if the Aussie fails again today, then we are seeing a 3rd Ashes series with England in total control
