Ollie Robinson has doubled down on his pre-Ashes bullishness with predictions of a ‘comfortable win’ over the Aussies this summer.
And Robinson is ready to show the oldest enemy just how much he has improved since his first foray into Ashes battle two winters ago. Since his comical dismissal ended a 4-0 drubbing, Robinson has become a mainstay of the England attack with his highly skilled bowling now matched with improved physical quality.
And after 10 wins in their last 12 Tests, the 29-year-old was happy to reaffirm his hope that England give the Aussies a ‘good hiding’ by indulging in a little fighting talk at Hove ahead of his first games this summer for Sussex.
