Another series win will be the first time, since we dominated it in the first 10 years of the encounters in 1880s, that we have won 4 on the bounce.

With all the money swilling round in India with the IPL they seem to be more concerned with 20-20 and to a lesser extent the Sri Lankans and Pakistanis as well. The ashes and the competitiveness of it all just seems to really grip the nation like no other.

Not being one of the closest followers of cricket, how come this Ashes series is so close on the last one - I thought they were usually every 18 months?

There's no doubt they're cashing in imo, I think it's too much personally but it means we can spank them sooner (if our batsmen can be arsed), so excellent.

Just noticed that Bisphampotter hasn't posted on this thread yet. As our resident cricket pundit surprised he hasn't joined in. Maybe he's down under for the series?

There seems to be some rhetoric coming from the Ozzie camp already.

I think our chances are excellent......I expect Australia to perform well but I feel that we are a stronger than they are and we will surely perform better than last summer , when we didn't really get out of first gear but still won comfortably .....as for the Aussies , there always is rhetoric coming out of their camp and as usual it is all rubbish

You might be hearing/seeing lots of rhetoric over there ... Over 'ere I can assure you that they've also been very ... Oh, there's one day series in India? Really, wow and you scored 350 ... Oh, you lost that game ... Yeah, Xmas is a long way off
