1
00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:03,560
Speaker 1: And Amanda jam Nation.

2
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:05,920
Speaker 2: Down to the Jonesy demand of arms for the pub

3
00:00:05,960 --> 00:00:08,880
Speaker 2: Test today a reserve day for the Ashes. To me,

4
00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:09,879
Speaker 2: it kind of makes sense.

5
00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:12,840
Speaker 3: Well, the English are apoplectic that they were destined to

6
00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:15,360
Speaker 3: win this Third Test, and it seems that then it

7
00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:17,360
Speaker 3: just started to pour with rain all day. There was

8
00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:20,080
Speaker 3: no further play. We retained the Ashes.

9
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:21,079
Speaker 2: And then the sunshine came out.

10
00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:23,240
Speaker 3: What are the chances it's happened to us in the past,

11
00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:26,720
Speaker 3: But England was outraged. There is some discussion that there

12
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:29,520
Speaker 3: should be a reserve day, as you say, for bad weather.

13
00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:34,120
Speaker 3: The World Test Championship final between Australia and India, just

14
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:38,599
Speaker 3: in the final they allowed allocation for a reserve day

15
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:40,600
Speaker 3: in case it rained because they needed a result. This

16
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,320
Speaker 3: was a long competition that needed a result. Whereas in

17
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:47,000
Speaker 3: Test cricket, in ashes cricket we accept that a draw

18
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:50,479
Speaker 3: is a result, but would you like to see a result?

19
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:52,879
Speaker 3: Every time a reserve day for the Ashes? Does it

20
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:53,760
Speaker 3: pass the pub Test?

21
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 4: It certainly does. Similar to when they introduced golden point

22
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:00,280
Speaker 4: with the football. It can't be a draw, so you

23
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 4: can't let someone win by default. It has to be played,

24
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:05,960
Speaker 4: so a reserve day is a great idea.

25
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:06,520
Speaker 5: No way.

26
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 1: Look we've been playing the formats for one hundred and

27
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:14,399
Speaker 1: something years, so why change it is just because they lost, No,

28
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:15,040
Speaker 1: it doesn't.

29
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:18,039
Speaker 5: There's five tests over five days. I've got plenty of

30
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 5: time to win the ashes if they want. We don't

31
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 5: need reserve days in a five test series. It's just

32
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:24,320
Speaker 5: the palms having a good.

33
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 2: Wins, just the pom's having a good wine. And quite

34
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 2: rightly we do the same.

35
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 3: Thing with we oh we did when it happened to us.

36
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:32,839
Speaker 2: And of course thank you for all your calls.
