I like Bumble, but if he thinks we can win the Ashes 5-0, he's lost the plot methinks. ;D

Our batsmen are terrible and will really need to up their game against the Aussies. I'm not a massive fan of Finn and Bresnan either in the bowling department.

Aussies are a poor side these days, very average bar a couple players. Then again so are we to a degree...
Oh and Bumble is fantastic, shame you don't see football commentators with such a good sense of humour.
He was making me chuckle the other week when he was going on about starting a new TV show with Warne called strictly come beer drinking ;D

Our attack's fine it's the top order that worries me, sometimes I think they have a one out all out policy going on.

He just does the same as Finn and Broad but worse. And Bresnan I think the selectors think he is the next Flintoff but he's just an average cricketer. And I liked the look of Shazad, he could reverse it which would be useful but he inner going.
