I *think* it means we'll win none and two will be draws. Nonsense of course as anyone knows that any Tests we don't win don't count

Rain will make it happen

Son Of Coco · 27-06-2009, 08:13 PM

Prediction

Bopara to get owned by the combination of Johnson, Siddle and Clark.

* I haven't seen him bat

superkingdave · 28-06-2009, 05:38 AM

Some predictions

Johnson to own Pietersen, KP will get a ton but not much else in the series.

Australia's 7-9 will score more runs than Englands 1-3.

Prior will drop more than 3 catches

Hauritz will take more wickets than Swann at Cardiff (if he plays)

Harmison will play at least one test.

Jimmy will get at least 2 five wicket hauls.

inbox24 · 28-06-2009, 05:55 AM

Some more predictions:

North to get owned.

Hussey to continue the abysmal.

Lee to be expensive and/or not take many wickets.

Bopara to average in the mid 40s.

England's openers to dominate.
