I still can't help but feeling well nervous though. Everything seems to be going [itoo[/i well so far.'"
Lord Jimmy of Burnley has already promised that the only way the first ball will end up there is by taking the edge of the bat! 
And I agree, I'm very nervous too. |

Even four years on it riled me to see Harmison having a laugh about that ball on a preview show the other day. I'm just glad I won't be surrounded by Aussies while I watch it this time, I was travelling last time we went down under and I couldn't escape the buggers.

I think the first Test is crucial, if the Aussies win it then it gives them a huge physcological lift bt if we win it then the pressure is really on them.
I think it could be a drawn series with England retaining the Ashes.'"
Given the opportunity I'd love to. No such hope of seeing it on Thai television I'm afraid!!! The internet it is for me  |

| I see most have gone with Swann for most wickets. The obvious choice of course however, I just see the Aussie groundsman being told deliberately to prepare none spinning wickets considering they don't have a decent spinner and they fear ours 
I reckon Swanny is gonna have his work cut out this tour..... |

Good toss to win, get through the first hour or so and there should be runs.

Let's hope we can get a decent score that puts THEM under pressure and not us. |
