The Ashes is Test cricket’s fiercest rivalry, with England and Australia going head-to-head in 5 matches down under. To celebrate, we asked 20 England fans to debate 1 Australian ahead of the 2025-26 series. Enjoy!

Who won the debate? And which England fan made the best argument? Let us know in the comments! 🔥
hehehe.. this aged brilliantly xx
This aged so poorly. Bazball is a joke and travball is the future!
Ok, bring these same fellas back and do a debrief, love to see their reaction.
Watching poms speak so passionately of the virtues of bazball after alls said and done is beautiful to watch
god this aged well lol, 2025 thepoms got smashed, travball won, bazball died… and a big lol rings out across the cricket word.
Watching this post ashes is hilarious… the amount of “what if” statements. If my aunty had balls she’d be my uncle.
I think the are mad the the are doing bazz ball and we are doing trav ball
Australians are at their peak at age of mid to late 30s, but Brits are old men at same age
Cuz bazball is a myth 😂😂😂
I wonder how these CLOWNS FEEL NOW. 4./ 1. HA. HA. HA. HA.
Hehehe travball 4, 1
this is funny after a 4 to 1 pants down spanking
That first pom was a fully paid up bazball cult member 😂 He didn’t seem to care if England won or not because they’re “saving” cricket. They played recklessly and lost 4-1 – he should be very happy 😐
Some of these comments aged like fine Australian wine, others like English milk
oh it's me ole mate, great stuff mate
Clueless lmaoooo
Oh yeah shotgun next “1 all black fan against 20 wallabies fans”. Stop doing easy ones haha. Should’ve done 1 pom against 20 aussies. That’d be tough.
@cricketdistrict – can you please call these fans back to rewatch this and explain their delusion?
Ageing bowling attack 😂
14:42 “if you lose any more you’ll lose” just for starc to take 13 wickets in the first test
I’m really enjoying watching this in late January, with the hindsight of a 4-1 drubbing by Australia over England.
Collins is a walking cricket wiki, his call on Starc, Carey and Head vs Brook. The idiots who says Jofra over any of Aussie quicks, how did that argument go, champs?!?!?
watching this after the ashes is hilarious
Jofra Archer has taken 60 wickets in his WHOLE TEST CAREER!! How delusional are these England fans. Amazing
whole country is deluded, keep it up
