Attention spans have shortened in the era of smartphones and social media, but generations of cricket fans remain enthralled by the Ashes, a five-test grudge match steeped in tradition, myth and cultural identity. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/11/16/more-sports/ashes-cricket-focus/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #moresports #uk #australia #ashes

A major golf tournament runs four days with 6 to 10 hours of play each day. You might see your favourite player for an hour each day. Test cricket is 5 days with 6 hours per day and much more than stick-whack to see.

Which is the boring anachronism? (Golf. It's the golf.)
