‘If you go 2-0 down here in Australia, that’s the Ashes as good as done’: Michael Atherton warns England | Cricket News
Former England batter Michael Atherton issued a warning to the England team, saying that they have to bounce back in the 2nd ashes series at Brisbane, adding that if they lost at the Gabba, the series could well be over. England batters had capitulated a couple of weeks ago at Perth for the first Test, leading to Australia winning the match by 8 runs and taking a 1-0 lead in the series. “The omens are not necessarily in their favour but they have to bounce back, If you go 2-0 down here in Australia, that’s the Ashes as good as done because England don’t generally win that many Test down under and they certainly don’t win three on the bounce. So, it’s a massive game and England will have to bounce back and play rather better than they did in Perth. And if they do, there are still vulnerabilities in this Australian team to exploit,” Atherton said on Sky cricket. “If you go 2-0 down, that’s the Ashes DONE” ❌ Athers previews England’s second Ashes …
