Ashes cricket is the highlight of any English or Australian cricket supporters test series. It's not just more important than any other series, it is for some strange reason amplified to a crazy level. Love it!
Still amazes me that according to the English team, Starc catch was correct because of the letter of the law, but Barstow stumping was not. Oh by the way, spirit of the law also states that you expect the umpires decision.
Came to type this comment. Unbelievable hypocrisy. I’m an Australian supporter and I’ll accept the Starc “no catch” he DID slide with the ball on the ground- even though it looks worse in slow mo- but you don’t get it both ways. If you want to say “ball hit the ground” then “stay in your crease”
Love it, love seeing both (behind the scenes) sides. As an Aussie sitting up until 3 (or so) in the morning this was such an epic series to watch. As a fan of Test cricket this was so awesome and I long for the day when playing all countries feels this special. More Test cricket please.
Anger, ecstacy, emotion, joy - this fantastic video sums up how much I love our beautiful sport - the best series since 2005, I could watch this over and over again and not tire of watching, that last day at the Oval was one of the best day's cricket I've ever had the pleasure of watching
Take it with pinch of salt, it was clearly pantomime stuff after the initial anger but kept it going as it was getting under Aussies skin creating a dynamic in the batters favour.
I'm excited for this one because I seen the aus documentary about this ashes and like to see their version of the ashes 2023 doc! This doc is as good as the australia doc on prime! Love brendon mccullum as england coach, he takes the positive despite losing the match! Ben stokes when u catch it, you gotta have "Full" control of the catch but since he caught it and hit his leg letting go of the ball that's a dropped catch (Herschelle gibbs dropped catch reference)

like Tim Paine said about Headingley 2019, something like " One day we'll look back on this game fondly", i guess we will feel the same about this series, but not yet, give it 10 years.......
1 year on and it still feels like naivety cost us the Ashes, yes the weather in Manchester ruined a possible win but those first 2 Tests we saw some Village thinking, not what you need in an Ashes battle, will be remembered forever for Broadys' finish, shame it wasn't that alongside regaining the Urn
Yes, village is the right word - plus too much kool aid - and who ever gave Ben Stokes his talking points should be very embarrassed. I hope he doesn't actually believe the rubbish he was sprouting. If he does, the self-delusion is incredible. The Ashes is about winning. Everything else is usually secondary. A lot of the cricket in 1970-71 was tedious, however Ray Illingworth justifiably returned as a hero for winning the Ashes back, same with Hutton in 1954-55. Except for Old Trafford, almost everything possible went in England's favour and they still couldn't manage a series win. They might want to start with picking a team that will stay together for a decent period. The results and turnover of players over the 2 years under this leadership group has shown that the batting is good on flat wickets and small grounds against mediocre bowling and that the seam bowling needs favourable home conditions to be a chance against good batsmen. I hope for England's sake, the have found a wicketkeeper they will stick with. YJB should not have been selected as keeper over Foakes after Edgbaston. Foakes was excellent in India, however Jamie Smith looks good so far in that role and will probably make more runs.

Manchester was unfortunate, however the impending weather was well telegraphed. As distinct from Edgbaston, Ben Stokes forgot the team and this time waited too long at Old Trafford to declare on a very flat pitch. He wanted YJB to get a hundred to make up for his problems earlier in the series. As well as YJB played, England was racing against the closk in good batting conditions. The team comes first and this, plus the hundred partnership between Marnus and MM, plus average bowling from Jimmy and Stuart Broad, cost England any chance of winning within the time allowed. Wood and Woakes were both relatively fresh and it showed, as England were almost entirely reliant on them for wickets. Stuart Broad bowled very well in this series. I really rate his performance as one of the best of his career, as the problem with Bazball and Stokes are that they require flat pitches on small grounds. That did not help Jimmy and Stuart Broad when they were mostly bowling at less than 85 mph. He managed to get some swing and seam movement at critical times for England. To his credit, SB knew that his time had come. Tours to India and Australia were going to be a bridge too far.

Great doc I and GREAT series. Had all the theatre that we love about test cricket. Hero's, villains, great spells of batting and bowling, weather, dropped catches and legitimate stumpings. The spectators were the real winners, we have a series of the ages that we are still talking about. Bring on 2025/26.
As an Aussie, I've got no doubt that the reason Cummins called for Carey to do that was directly related to the decision of no catch against Starc. It was very clear he caught it but rules are rules. And so.... the run out, rules are rules. In the end though, it showed though it actually woke up the beast .... the universe swung back in Englands favour. But the lack of class from the public afterwards, it wasn't good either. The universe then swings back to the Aussies and they somehow manage to keep the urn.
The difference is that Starc had the option to do things differently but chose not to. Had he tried to keep that hand up he might have rolled onto the rope so was correct. Absolutely no reason to try and 'get revenege'. A very poor take if true.
@@jamesosullivan7969 but its not revenge, if rules are rules and the "spirit of cricket" (whatever that means) be damned, then its perfectly valid to ping at the stumps before over is called. Its about making the rules work for you. Australia had it work against them with the catch, it worked for them with the stumping.
@@andrewmcgill6369 3 moments certainly still sting - final session at Edgbaston, Australian gamesmanship with the Bairstow stumping at Lords, sopping wet at Old Trafford. It would have been nice to win. Still, we had the better of the Australians for most of Edgbaston and Old Trafford, and on the whole it was engrossing cricket.
@@alfredjohnson2647 Agree with you conclusion. Yes - Edgbaston was another glorious defeat for England. But a moral victory. England had by far the best of the conditions there and still lost.
I don't know about England, but in Australia the only thing that Ashes series will ever be remembered for is the disgraceful behaviour of the members at the supposed 'Home of Cricket'. Lords lost any veneration it may have had that day.
@@sofiakhan4131 umm, you do realize that the crowds in Leeds and Manchester are just as feral and rowdy as the Aussie crowds? The abuse they were giving the touring Aussie supporters in the stands was much worse than the drunks in Bay13 or the Gabba.
@@sofiakhan4131 you've never been to Headingly, Edgbaston or Old Trafford have you? The english are just as feral as the aussies. All the drunks and rowdy football hooligans abuse the opposition teams. No different to Bay13 at the MCG or the bogans at Gabba or Waca.
I was fortunate enough to be in the stands at Edgbaston, for Day 5 of the First Test (15:50). Definitely set the tone for the Ashes series, under Stokes' captaincy. Truly box office.🏏
This is a really good documentary, thank you for the filmmakers and the English players for giving valuble insights. As Ben Duckett said 21:22 it got people interested because it was a big event in England and thus many just soaked up the atmosphere. What many players said, and with what I fully agree with, is that at the end of the day, it does not really matter who won the game. The best game is produced when both sides are at their absolute best, really fighting for their team makes the best entertainment value. The England and Australia players certainly did that, and therefore a lot of credit has to go their way for making it such a special cricket summer for us. That is also what the players said at the end of the documentary, that the series will be remembered for a long time. Great stuff! I also want to pay tribute to Ben Stokes, who had a shattering time in 2021, who really needed time away from the game to focus on his mental health and is now back captaining the test team and leading them in a very good way, as he said in 22:10, that he believes they want the style of cricket which brings the best out of them as a team. Also for me cricket is more than a sport, like its great playing and watching it, but I think from this documentary you can also derive some words of wisdom for life. For me these 5 scenes stand out: 1. Ben Stokes 22:10 he does not regret his style of play, just becuase it did not work this one time. He still stays true to his philosophy because he does not want the diverge from their natural play, believing it suits them best. But also acknologling they are not perfect saying " We know we could have made the little things better, but we are not always going to make the right decision". 2. Joe Root 40:05 he puts himself in the opposite position and reflecting objectiely on the situation, although he is understanbly not happy with what had happened, he knows he is not in the other position and therefore cannot say what he would have done stating very honestly: "I like to think I would have dealt with it differently, but I could have very well done the same, you never know". 3. Johnny Bairstow 40:27 saying "As long as you can go home and be alright with yourself, so be it", for me that is the right way of dealing with such an incident by accepting what had happened and not thinking whether he could have done something different. It will probalbly not haunt you furtheron if you think like that. 4. Stuart Broad after losing the first two matches, we did not say right we are 2 0 down, we have to win the remaning three, but just focus on our strengths. I think this is an important message not to drown in the pressure but take it as it is and being confident in your abilities and really wanting to fight for it, you will have the best chance of winning. And also at the end you cannot say you have not tried your hardest. 5. Ben Stokes 1:23:28 we have achieved something a lot bigger than an Ashes trophy, we have inspired the next generation to play cricket like we do. This comes back to my original point where at the end of the day the result does not matter that much, what counts and what people will remember for longer than the result is the way they played, gave it their all and by doing so got people talking about cricket who we not interested before and just with a new brand of play now have certainly paved the way for future teams to play similarly. Great work Ben Stokes and England and thank you again for this amazing documentary!
Not cheating at all. Lousey umpiring. Very few batsman walk. It looked worse as the ball deflected off the keeper. Before you complain yes I am English and I think bairstow was 100% out. Only has himself to blame
@@fredfreg3545but broad is the one who talks about sportsman spirit a lot and yet he is not ready to leave the ground even he knows that he is clear out, Hypocrisy
Here's my review on the video even though it was more like a movie and it was beautiful it captured every moment of that amazing summer. Every emotion and how that impacted the dressing room what losses that should have been wins affected them, how they came back from that to deliver such an entertaining 5 tests and the way the video is put together seams very genuine never lets you get bored there is never a point where you think this dragging on or what else could I be doing pure cinema I would've payed good money to watch this. This is the best video I have watched on TH-cam probably ever 10/10 I have no criticism.
Respectfully, Stuart Broad is trying to say the Australian team didn't follow the spirit of cricket... but he literally edged one to first slip in 2013 and didn't walk! Easy to be a hypocrite and very difficult to actually place yourself in the opposition's shoes. Root's common sensical approach is class

Great entertaining documentary! For all of the Aussies who want to drag up the cliche of “Wingeing Poms” yet again, rewind to Warner and Smith in the aftermath of “Sandpapergate” to see some real histrionics. A tsunami of crocodile tears!
to be honest. the change of ball in 5th test 5th day was not fair because it wasn't like to like replacement that saved england otherwise they were down.
Yep. The Aussies were very gracious in not making a bigger stink about it. Unlike the crowd at Lords, they accepted the umpires' decision and got on with it.
No harm in giving the Aussies a taste of their own medicine. It clearly rattled them as the series went on. The weather saved them at OT, otherwise 3-2 England.
@@freemanv4056 mate in the 5th the ball was switched for no reason both warner and Uzi were on top cruising to a 200 run parternership and suddeny the ball was switched which helped the english team you guys got lucky with the ball change eitherway we got lucky with the weather and you got lucky with the ball switch and it ends in a draw but mainly the urn stays with us once again

@@sofiakhan4131 you've never been to Headingly, Edgbaston or Old Trafford have you? The english are just as feral as the aussies. All the drunks and rowdy football hooligans abuse the opposition teams. No different to Bay13 at the MCG or the bogans at Gabba or Waca.
We need more of this inspiring documentariy.
Thank you. What a tremendous watch.
Root is soooo calm and chill
2 hours of pure cinema. This is what we live for. Stuart Broad you are an absolute legend.
And a cheat….
Movements to document!! And documented the way it deserves. Best ever , loved it ❤️
Best cricketing documentary ever,so so proud of the England team,so proud of you boys 🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴😉👍
Class act to put this all together in one ... excellent production and visuals
Beautiful. Loved it. Thankyou
Really enjoyed that, coming from a scotsman and a man thats only watched about 20 games of cricket
Great video, enjoyed every second of it.
I was fortunate enough to be in the stands at Edgbaston, for Day 5 of the First Test (15:50).
Definitely set the tone for the Ashes series, under Stokes' captaincy. Truly box office.🏏
This is a really good documentary, thank you for the filmmakers and the English players for giving valuble insights.
As Ben Duckett said 21:22 it got people interested because it was a big event in England and thus many just soaked up the atmosphere.
What many players said, and with what I fully agree with, is that at the end of the day, it does not really matter who won the game. The best game is produced when both sides are at their absolute best, really fighting for their team makes the best entertainment value. The England and Australia players certainly did that, and therefore a lot of credit has to go their way for making it such a special cricket summer for us. That is also what the players said at the end of the documentary, that the series will be remembered for a long time. Great stuff!
I also want to pay tribute to Ben Stokes, who had a shattering time in 2021, who really needed time away from the game to focus on his mental health and is now back captaining the test team and leading them in a very good way, as he said in 22:10, that he believes they want the style of cricket which brings the best out of them as a team.
Also for me cricket is more than a sport, like its great playing and watching it, but I think from this documentary you can also derive some words of wisdom for life. For me these 5 scenes stand out:
1. Ben Stokes 22:10 he does not regret his style of play, just becuase it did not work this one time. He still stays true to his philosophy because he does not want the diverge from their natural play, believing it suits them best. But also acknologling they are not perfect saying " We know we could have made the little things better, but we are not always going to make the right decision".
2. Joe Root 40:05 he puts himself in the opposite position and reflecting objectiely on the situation, although he is understanbly not happy with what had happened, he knows he is not in the other position and therefore cannot say what he would have done stating very honestly: "I like to think I would have dealt with it differently, but I could have very well done the same, you never know".
3. Johnny Bairstow 40:27 saying "As long as you can go home and be alright with yourself, so be it", for me that is the right way of dealing with such an incident by accepting what had happened and not thinking whether he could have done something different. It will probalbly not haunt you furtheron if you think like that.
4. Stuart Broad after losing the first two matches, we did not say right we are 2 0 down, we have to win the remaning three, but just focus on our strengths. I think this is an important message not to drown in the pressure but take it as it is and being confident in your abilities and really wanting to fight for it, you will have the best chance of winning. And also at the end you cannot say you have not tried your hardest.
5. Ben Stokes 1:23:28 we have achieved something a lot bigger than an Ashes trophy, we have inspired the next generation to play cricket like we do. This comes back to my original point where at the end of the day the result does not matter that much, what counts and what people will remember for longer than the result is the way they played, gave it their all and by doing so got people talking about cricket who we not interested before and just with a new brand of play now have certainly paved the way for future teams to play similarly. Great work Ben Stokes and England and thank you again for this amazing documentary!
Thoroughly enjoyed watching this. ❤ from Zimbabwe 🇿🇼
absolute masterpeice for cricket lovers ❤
Amazing ! last 20 minutes is literally wonderful
What a documentary England Cricket is best Lucky to Watch the Ashes 2023-2024❤🩹❤🩹❤🩹❤🩹 Hop England win in Australia
Ohh Stuart Broad !! Whole world remembers You cheating in broad day light with thick edge off Your bat and still shamelessly holding on to crease.
Not cheating at all. Lousey umpiring. Very few batsman walk. It looked worse as the ball deflected off the keeper.
Before you complain yes I am English and I think bairstow was 100% out. Only has himself to blame
@@fredfreg3545but broad is the one who talks about sportsman spirit a lot and yet he is not ready to leave the ground even he knows that he is clear out,
Hypocrisy
@@fredfreg3545 sorry but England cricket is shameful and very bad but Australia is outstanding
Great one, thank you ECB and Broady for all the fun and emotions.
Broad summed it up well....petulant theatrics! He's the world's oldest adolescent!
England cricket is shameful and Australia is going to win easily in 2025
Best documentary ❤❤❤
Brilliant and captivating documentary- thanks for making this free to view for everyone to enjoy. Great insight to a special series!
Here's my review on the video even though it was more like a movie and it was beautiful it captured every moment of that amazing summer. Every emotion and how that impacted the dressing room what losses that should have been wins affected them, how they came back from that to deliver such an entertaining 5 tests and the way the video is put together seams very genuine never lets you get bored there is never a point where you think this dragging on or what else could I be doing pure cinema I would've payed good money to watch this. This is the best video I have watched on TH-cam probably ever 10/10 I have no criticism.
Respectfully, Stuart Broad is trying to say the Australian team didn't follow the spirit of cricket... but he literally edged one to first slip in 2013 and didn't walk! Easy to be a hypocrite and very difficult to actually place yourself in the opposition's shoes. Root's common sensical approach is class
Such a great Documentary! Loved every sec of it
A movie that deserves Oscars🎤
Woow amazing!!! Hi from ITALY!!!!🇮🇹🏏🏏

Aussie here, I hated him so much now I love him and miss him! But yous carry on like you saved test cricket it's hilarious 🤣
Absolutely superb film.
Absolutely masterclass ❤❤❤ beautiful documentary ❤❤ bazball era is just love it... perfect 🥰.. wordless 🥲
1:11:30 why she not want to shake moeen’s hand, abit sus 🧐
ali's religion thing maybe
In Islam it isn't allowed to shake hands with opposite gender. Other than your mother, sister, daughter or wife
Great entertaining documentary!
For all of the Aussies who want to drag up the cliche of “Wingeing Poms” yet again, rewind to Warner and Smith in the aftermath of “Sandpapergate” to see some real histrionics. A tsunami of crocodile tears!
Great video - thanks for producing and sharing!
The was superb. Credit to all involved
Superb documentary. Absolutely superb.
to be honest. the change of ball in 5th test 5th day was not fair because it wasn't like to like replacement that saved england otherwise they were down.
Yep. The Aussies were very gracious in not making a bigger stink about it. Unlike the crowd at Lords, they accepted the umpires' decision and got on with it.
That was a fantastic piece of artestry. Well done to the creators!
Thanks for the memories broady
Brilliant 👏🏼
Please upload that documentary which ECB and Star Sports made on their visit to Pakistan in 2022.
Undoubtedly the best documentary I have ever seen ❤
Loved every sec. of documentary ❤
It's fun to see the England teams side of Starcs catch and the Bairstow dismissal. I was at Lords that day and it was brilliant.
No harm in giving the Aussies a taste of their own medicine. It clearly rattled them as the series went on. The weather saved them at OT, otherwise 3-2 England.
Ifs and buts......
@@freemanv4056 mate in the 5th the ball was switched for no reason both warner and Uzi were on top cruising to a 200 run parternership and suddeny the ball was switched which helped the english team you guys got lucky with the ball change eitherway we got lucky with the weather and you got lucky with the ball switch and it ends in a draw but mainly the urn stays with us once again
@@sayeksofian cry about it, that ball was more out of shape than an apple as a cricket ball
@@gogababa2580 why would I cry we are WTC AND WORLD CUP CHAMPIONS AND HAVE THE URN WITH US, YOU SHOULD BE WORRIED ABOUT ENGLANDS RANKING ON THE TABLE THEY PROBABLY WONT EVEN MAKE THE FINAL AGAIN EVEN WITH THEIR BAZBALL
Starc rubbing the ball on the ground at Lord's on the evening of day 4 and the decision with that was totally valid. So was the dismissal of Bairstow on day 5.
42:14 that bounce was personal
Excellent documentary.
Amazing documentary I really love ashes series test cricket is the best cricket 🏏 ❤❤❤ 🇮🇳
Aussie here, class one lads, class. could've been a bunch of sore arses., but as root says stay in your crease, maybe take listen.
I just love English cricket 🖤🖤🖤
the ashes, what a spectical for all the fans involved. the aussies play hard and are a tough nut to crack. winning in australia is the big one.
Its Always Ben Stokes With The Winning Runs
I don't think cricket gets any better than this series
This is class
how good was Bairstows speech at Lords, so funny - Go aussies
bloody Manchester rain with that rain we would have won the series. so many great moments the series one of the best i have watched. Time to bring the ashes home stokesie.
2 new balls in the first 30 over of an innings and still couldnt get it done 😂. Did to Sri Lanka not that long ago too.
