Mitchell Johnson bowled the first ball of the Ashes and did a better job than Harmeston 4 years earlier. Hilfy bowled well as did Horry, but undoubtedly the highlight of the day was Peiterson's shocking shot to be dismissed by Horry in the 50's...... alot of celebrities were seen at the game.....including John Howard and hands shaken from Bobby Willis, Graham Gooch, Greg Blewett and Kenny Sutcliffe.
Some tested the Cardiff nightlife later on but most went back to the motel for a rest.
Bucket list ticked again....The Ashes live, 1st day, 1st ball.......and upon writing this Punter and Kat have just made 2nd day tons......special!!!!!!

Hi there! You all look fabulous in your get-up - im sure a fabulous night. Well done against the barmy army. Mum you look great as a beer wench! HAHA. love to you all.
ReplyDeleteIt is not good publicity at all for Cardiff or Wales. It will only strengthen the opinion in countries far and wide that Wales is simply a region of 'England'. Cardiff's USP is that it is the capital of Wales, if people consider it simply as another small English city, why will they bother coming again. We should have our own Welsh International Cricket Team. That WOULD be superb news for the Swalec Stadium, Cardiff and Wales, and would generate a lot more income in the long run than the odd game between two foreign countries!
