ENGLAND 2-1 TO WIN DOWN UNDER AFTER ASHES SUCCESS

England's cricketers are 2-1 with bookmaker Coral to win the next Ashes series, following their dramatic series win over Australia. The two-one victory was well received by Coral, with patriotic punters deserting England ahead of the first Test in Cardiff.

"Australia were well-backed to win this summer's series after they beat South Africa in the winter, and after England narrowly escaped with a draw in the opening Test, the expected patriotic support for Andrew Strauss' men never materialised, so we're celebrating along with English cricket fans," said Coral's David Stevens.

"Despite the victory, we remember how easily Australia won back the Ashes after England's 2005 success, so we make the Aussies favourites to gain revenge Down Under," added Stevens.
