I think Harmy needs another go, its a big risk, but if he just happens to find some form there hope England can take 20 wickets. Bring in Monty, who I think can put some pressure on the Aussies & unnerve them a bit. All is not lost.......not just yet  Cheesy

Fletcher has said Harmison wont be dropped.

He's also hinted at an unchanged team for the second test. SIGH!

Sigh just about sums it up


Interestingly it is the coldest november in Adelaide for yonks, top 24c..this could favour our seamers if its cloudy, as long as they land it on the pitch of course

Fluke is a bit strong.

With 11 fit players England's test side cant beat anyone.

Fluke? Winning a 5 match test series is rarely a fluke and the 2005 ashes were dominated by England, if it weren't for the weather England may have won the series 4-1, they were ahead in both the drawn matches.

I am not clutching at any straws. I accept we are the worse team. It will be nice for our bowlers to have more "english" conditions though, it may be an equaliser

Please note another loss...I am out in Ausralia at the moment nd yo uwould not believe the &%$@ I am getting. Seriously, 75% of shops I go in want to talk about the cricket.
Last year, I believed we could win all five tests, this time,  really cant see where a win will come from. Hopefully I can get some tickets still for the Sydney test! Eternal optimist...

Yep they've gone for a match-saver in Giles as opposed to a pontential match-winner in Monty.

At least we won the toss which makes me wish even more that Monty was playing....

new plan if we lose this  test match

1) build a 30ft high wall around Australia
2) fill it with water
