Which would you go for and should anything else be there?

Probably go for the Ashes and Andy Murray winning Wimbledon as that hadn’t happened for a long time.

Super Saturday was fantastic too.

Guess they all are memorable really!

My top three would be 

Cricket World Cup 2019

Super Saturday at the Olympics 2012

And was lucky to be at at the Lionesses winning the Euros in 2022

For pure excitement,  that 2019 cwc was probably the best sports event I've ever witnessed. 

 

Super Saturday was pretty spectacular as well.

 

3rd one, I would go for the rugby World Cup...a crap match, but defined by a second of pure genius.

 

Lionesses...meh.

Even for the pure cricket enthusiast like myself, test cricket can have it's boring, forgettable matches.

The 2005 Ashes didn't seem to have a boring session never mind day or test. International sport at it's very best, it had everything.

The 2019 WC final was as exciting as it gets but a few fortunate, lucky moments had us feeling a bit for the plucky losers. I'm a far bigger cricket fan than rugby but the 2003 win seemed incredibly important for England to get over the line, not just for rugby but all of British sport.

Growing up we'd get excited if Jeremy Bates or any Brit reached the second week of Wimbledon. Then Tim Henman came along and gave us hope but ultimately disappointment.

So the Andy Murray victory was an extremely special sporting moment.

So my personal favourite top 3 would be-

The Ashes.

Andy Murray

Rugby world cup
