What a night for Perth Scorchers — and in front of an Optus Stadium cricket record 55,018 crowd. The power of the Big Bash — and another chance to wonder where its future lies… From @theathletic.com 🏏 www.nytimes.com/athletic/688... ★ 1 Cricket in January! Good cricket too. ★ 1 What a wacky, wild opening day of Test cricket that was, Perth. Crumbs. Get briefed right here with me, Jim & Cameron for @theathletic.com #Ashes www.nytimes.com/athletic/681... ★ 3 Came up with this idea while still in England. So much fun digging into how you go from rugby & AFL, to a cricket oval at a glorious new stadium — all while trying to recreate an iconic pitch from the opposite bank of the Swan River... #As… ★ 6 I've not checked it out but I feel it's pretty likely I've been in an elite group of journalists today who covered the USMNT playing Uruguay (some win that) — and then headed over to Perth Stadium for more #Ashes cricket buildup. What a n… ★ 2 History in the making for Australia. Hopefully. Great to hear from Scott Boland at Perth Stadium this lunchtime. Big week ahead... www.nytimes.com/athletic/681... ★ 2 England’s Ashes preparations in Perth are continuing. With no real confidence in exactly how well… ★ 1 Getting excited about the Ashes? You should be! This is wonderful from Cameron Ponsonby on Ben Stokes' New Zealand heritage and how it formed him. Plenty more where this came from on the way too @theathletic.com … Enjoy! #TheAshes www.n… ★ 2 Norfolk cricket hits @theathletic.com! (Not something I imagined writing a few yrs ago.) Lovely stuff from @nickmiller79.bsky.social on Jake Weatherald — and a pocket of yellow & green in England hoping for at least a slither of Australia… ★ 4 Looking a bit English in Perth 😂 ★ 6 Obviously the Dodgers are good but deary me, that was weak from Milwaukee. Back to the soccer, guys! Bit of work to get on with there by the looks of it. 🫣 ★ 3
