There was plenty that was memorable about the Ashes cricket that took place on Saturday evening. But one unique moment was when England took back-to-back wickets, 200 miles apart.
It is hard now to remember which appeal came first. Alyssa Healy had just missed a leg glance and Charlie Dean was asking the question, along with much of the 20,000-strong Lord’s crowd. Stuart Broad pinned Todd Murphy back on his pads at Headingley and the umpire’s finger went up. Healy walked. Murphy burned a review. Australia were simultaneously 20 for one and 211 for nine.
