Cheers leefer! Just watching The home 2013 series review...blimey The Oval seems a long time ago now! I've 3 mates out there for the first 3 tests, lucky sods! Wicket apparently a road, which means England will need to do a lot better in the 1st innings of the 1st test away from home this time!

Scheduled this year so as not to interfere with the World Cup preparation in Australia in '15 I think.

Never realised it was 31-31 in series, thought they would be well ahead.

Aussies win the toss and will bat then... Prior fit and Tremlett in too.

Not too worried about losing the toss, as should be good for first 3 or so days...early wickets for England is key I think!

Stayed up to listen to the coverage and "Unfortunately, due to rights restrictions, this programme is not available in your territory." Yeah, 'cos the BBC got outbid by all those French radio stations to cover the Ashes. The joys of digital. Fuckers.
So how am I supposed to follow the series now?

Worried about the Tremlett choice.
