'England must stir themselves to find a Christmas miracle'

The Mega Munch takeaway in Nottingham has a special place in English cricketing history.

It was there that some worse-for-wear England players ended their celebrations of a win over New Zealand with a late-night meal.

Trent Bridge had been the birth of Bazball, a breathtaking run chase led by the swash and buckle of Jonny Bairstow on a sun-soaked Tuesday evening in June 2022.

In the aftermath of such an astonishing win, the England players and staff started their night on the tiles with beers on the dressing-room balcony. The drinking carried on to the early hours and the trip to Mega Munch that was filmed and posted online by a member of the public.

England have celebrated series wins with drinks - travelling journalists were invited to join in on one occasion. James Anderson marked the end of his illustrious international career by necking a Guinness at Lord's last July.

For every drinking session, there is a hangover. England warmed up for the 2023 Ashes with a boozy golf trip and found themselves 2-0 down. Twelve months ago, after going 2-0 up to win a series in New Zealand, England subsequently struggled through the third Test in Hamilton.
