Will this be the scene once more as England retain the Ashes?
Less than a hundred days to go before the Ashes series kicks off in Brisbane and England’s chances of winning and retaining the Ashes looks high.
Forget the disappointment of the World Cup, Fabio’s boys have nothing on Flower’s men as the England cricket team get ready to play Australia in the world famous Ashes starting in November. Could the English cricket squad finally give England something to be proud of?
If you want to be there to watch the glorious game live, then now is the time to start booking your place . This could well be one of those historical moments when you can say that you were there, watching it all happen.
The Ashes begins in Brisbane on November 25 – 29 for the First Test. Then Adelaide 3-7 December; Perth 16-20 December; Melbourne 26-30 December and finally Sydney 3-7 January.
There are some great Australian travel packages around at the moment that get you to any stage in the cricket, whether you want to be there at the beginning or at the end of the Ashes series. If you fancy travelling with a group of supporters, cheering on England as one, then the Barmy Army have several package deals that offer complete security and include flights, accommodation and tickets.
Or you can choose to go with Freedom Australia who are a Cricket Australia Licensed Travel Operator and offer tailored packages to suit your needs in travelling to watch the Ashes.
Our personal recommendation is to make it for the Final Test match in Sydney to watch the penultimate game and be there to see the winning team (England!) hold the Ashes aloft. Plus you also get to join in the world famous New Year celebrations in Sydney – what better Christmas present could you ask for? Freedom Australia are offering an unbeatable 8 nights in the heart of Sydney from the 31 Dec – 8 January with 5 day match tickets from just £923 per person!
Thomas Cook is another travel company endorsed by Cricket Australia, they offer a range of flexible deals from flight only, hotel and tickets or the full monty. Their full bronze package for Sydney, is priced at £2499.00 but there are limited spaces available.
So give England your support and watch as they make up for the disappointment of the World Cup. England will once again be victorious and jubilous if their cricket heros retain the Ashes, fielding off that Australian winning streak that has dogged them for so long.
