Sunrise hosts Nat Barr and Matt Shirvington's brutal cricket swipe: 'Are we allowed?'

The Sunrise hosts have taken a brutal swipe at the English cricket team after their loss against Australia at the Ashes.

Matt Shirvington, Mark Beretta and Nat Barr joked about the team while discussing Victoria Bitter's tongue-in-cheek Ashes beer release.

Carlton United Brewery had fans in stitches after they rebranded VB to be "England Bitter" after the English team refused to share a beer with the Australian team after their win.

CUB has sent cases of "England Bitter" to be delivered to the English team, with Mark sharing the story, saying, "And how about this to just cap off a big week — England Bitter."

"The special brew developed for English cricket fans there. It is England Bitter. So what you do if you’ve got friends in the UK, get a case of this, let it sit in the sun for a little while so it gets the temperature."

Shirvo then joked: "So, are we allowed to leave the crease to have one?"

Nat later added of the release, "I love the fact that they’ve got it out so quickly."

"And you know what the note says with it: ‘You can get it not protecting your stumps, you can get it ignoring the umps!’ Well done."

Nat shocked over detail in Ash Barty's baby announcement

It comes after Nat was shocked over Ash Barty's baby announcement this week due to his 'normal name'.

The retired Aussie tennis player and her husband, Garry Kissick, took to Instagram this week to announce the arrival of their adorable baby boy, Hayden.

While the Sunrise hosts were delighted for the three-time grand slam champion, Nat joked, "There’s something wrong there. It’s a normal name."

“Like, what on earth?”

“We’re shocked.”

“Ash is a normal person. Down to earth couple, makes perfect sense,” Shirvo added.
