Exactly. The Aussies do this ritual trash talk before every home Ashes series. They may well thump us, but if they do, that will be because they have a better team, not because "they've got inside their heads" etc. Nathan Lyon comes across as a cross between Basil Fawlty & Captain Darling, anyway. | |

The Aussies were cock-a-hoop, but when a thunderstorm cut short the first day we were 200+ for 2. The rest is history. | | | |

Moreover, their batting lineup is not in great shape, either. This series could be a wicket-fest all round. | |

It'll depend a bit on the pitches but we're not far off them in terms of batting, and could edge that department. Their bowling attack is in a different league to ours though. Having Stokes and Wood in the squad would make me optimistic of a close series. Without them, I think we'll come up short. I love it though, and lots of very tired working days are ahead. | | | |

I disagree. He might have got in some fan's heads but not the players. Embarassing really - he's the token Aussie to be wheeled out in front of the press as usual to be a yappy little dog. Shame he looks like an accountant with previous sex offending convictions. | |

This is not what The Ashes was about in 1948, 1953 and 1956 in England, I can assure you. And the matches were no less competitive. I don't remember the 1948 series in any detail, but Bradman - the greatest sportsman in the history of the world - would not have allowed it, even from the Aussie Irish contingent who were not over-fond of him. Each person will decide for themselves whether the change is for the better or not. Personally it seems to me a pity that cricketers (in Australia at least) now behave like silly boxers before a fight. It all started with Ian Chappell, allegedly. | | | |

Australia have won 2 out of the last 2 Ashes series in OZ 5-0! England have never won an Ashes series home or away 5-0. | |

I fully agree with you about it not being necessary to swear in thread titles Gav. I'm a little unsure about the comment that it makes the site 'less female friendly' though. Do you think women are more put off by swearing than men? | | | |
