No Ashes Without Fire - An Auction for the Third Test Match
In one of the oldest rivalries in sports history, the blood is still burning.
The second test match for The Ashes saw the ignition of a controversy so heated that the Prime Ministers of both countries got involved - with Anthony Albanese declaring his support for the Australian team and Rishi Sunak accusing them of sullying the spirit of the game.
In the days since Alex Carey stumped an oblivious Jonny Bairstow, arguments have raged ceaselessly about the ethics of the incident, but what is certain is that the next match will be the decider.
Lose this match and England lose The Ashes.
Win it and the path has been paved for a comeback.
In the words of Stuart Broad: “This series has turned into a shootout and we are very confident that we can still do this.”
Whatever the result, the match will be a testament to the unique mixture of anxiety and exhilaration that is responsible for The Ashes having attained such a legendary status among international sports.
And from now until the 15th of July, you have the opportunity to own a part of this legend: as we are hosting an auction for the shirts worn throughout the third test by the cricketers on the English team.
Our auction will be hosted alongside the third test, so that you can place your bids as the matches unfold.
