I love my test cricket, so much so I've taken the week off to watch it.
Australia have a great start at the Gabba with two out already on a pitch with a lot in it.
GO AUSSIES...smash those Poms!

Danny Weidler
How come whenever we see Danny Weidler on the news interviewing players, he has to have his big boof head front and centre of the shot. It's almost as if he is the star - has he ever played league....it just annoys me.

This should be a cracker of a series.
Should be a walk in the park for Aus. Baring weather, it's should end 5-0.
England batting weak, Anderson, Broad and Archer out makes the bowling even weaker.
Ist ball of the entire series. This is as bad as when Harmison sent the first ball to 4th slip. 5-0 here we come.
Cricket has largely become a game where sides only win in home conditions and England are the ultimate home conditions side. James Anderson, arguably their best ever bowler, is a grade level trundler with a Kookaburra ball.
I reckon Hazlewood or Smith for man of the series. I'm not silly enough to predict a 5-0 whitewash after last summer.
This pitch is fast, bouncy and swinging. England in big trouble.
Well that sounds just spiffing.
Die, Pom
I was at the game yesterday, right above the Barmy Army. Shoulda heard the roar after Mitch knocked over Rory Burns.
