First Test starts on Wednesday at Trent Bridge. :popcorn:
I'm predicting 3-1 to England, one of the tests will be drawn I am sure.
Come on England. :scarf:

3-0 to England. Whitewash prevented by the weather and Michael Clarke.
No ball, bad luck!
Might watch the highlights on channel 5.
2 poor teams going head to head. Oh for the days of Warney, gilchrist, Vaughan etc
England squad: Alastair Cook (Essex, capt), Joe Root (Yorkshire), Jonathan Trott (Warwickshire), Kevin Pietersen (Surrey), Ian Bell (Warwickshire), Jonny Bairstow (Yorkshire), Matt Prior (Sussex, wk), Tim Bresnan (Yorkshire), Stuart Broad (Nottinghamshire), Graeme Swann (Nottinghamshire), Steven Finn (Middlesex), James Anderson (Lancashire), Graham Onions (Durham).

Cricket :lol:
Awful sport.
Tea break :haha:
Any sport that can last 5 days and still end in a draw is a shit sport.
Graeme Swann regrets the absence of England's premier cheerleader 'Billy the Trumpet' for his home Ashes Test - but has reluctantly accepted the decision to ban musical instruments at Trent Bridge.
Swann describes it as a "shame" Barmy Army trumpeter Billy Cooper will not be allowed to serenade England's Test cricketers in this week's first match of the series.
England and Nottinghamshire off-spinner Swann said: "Personally I think it is a shame.
"I know the whole team are behind Billy, and the Barmy Army are a massive part of the English team."
:pal: :pal: :pal:
Also I read the Ashes will be on Youtube for those in mainland Europe.... or those savvy enough to pretend to be :ninja:
Beefy is going for a 10-0 England win
Chances of that?
It's tough to give Australia one victory over here with much confidence. But they might win one off the back of their bowling and a couple of days of decent batting. 3-1 sounds about right.
