Title: Ashes 2017 Non TV coverage
Post by: FattusCattus on October 31, 2017, 01:00:27 PM: Being totally clueless on things like Facelift and The 'Twattosphere' I wondered if there is any coverage of the England players preparation, practice or general info out there for keen fans to follow?

I used to love the players tour diaries and behind the scenes photos / footage etc.

Are any of the players YouTubers, or heavy tweeters in instagrammers and all that jazz?

Nothing will beat swannys diary from 2010/11 though

Oh man Swanny's Diary's were the second greatest thing to happen on that tour, only narrowly beaten by us winning down under.

Post by: ppccopener on October 31, 2017, 07:11:45 PM: Defiantly revisiting swannys diary on you tube, the series already looks a bit dull to me.

But not to stray too far from cat's post, the ecb has a good website and clips of lots of stuff on Facebook.

Tell me your on Facebook? No....holy moly :o

I can't find Ashes highlights on terrestrial or Sky.

Is it just snippets on Facebook?

I couldn't access the Cricket Australia highlights, but the BT Sport highlights are a very welcome lifeline to what is an absorbing match.
