England’s cricket WAGs wow on Bondi beach as Ashes team struggles Down Under

ENGLAND may be collapsing Down Under in the Ashes but away from the wicket the cricket WAGS are in mighty fine form.

Dawid Malan’s missus Claire Mottram is wowing with a red bikini better than the England lads can do with a red ball.

Malan’s hockey-playing sister Line is also part of the pack and looks positively peach in a pale pink two-piece.

Red-headed Rebecca Bairstow is out in Australia supporting her brother Jonny in a polka dot top.

The stunning England cricket WAGs bunch were on the iconic Bondi veach for a break from watching the one-sided contest.

It is all shaping towards another crushing victory for Australia and a 4-0 series loss.

By the close of play on Saturday morning,  Australia had reached 479 – 4 which is 133 runs ahead of England’s first innings total of 346 all out.

The most remarkable aspect of the day was that England managed to dismiss Steve Smith before the Aussie captain completed his fourth century of the series.

Aussie No3 Usman Khawaja took his score to 171 before he gave leg-spinner Mason Crane his first Test wicket.

Crane would have dismissed Khawaja earlier on 132 but TV replays showed that he overstepped for a no-ball by the narrowest of margins.

The DRS ball-tracking device confirmed that Khawaja would have been out lbw.

Jonny Bairstow said afterwards: “I’m going to have to put some aftersun on!

“It was a tough day. The boys have toiled really hard.

“It’s quite laughable sometimes when people question players in our side.

There’s no question that the effort and desire is there. It’s been a tough trip but the desire is still there.”
