*Official* Road to 2013 Ashes

Burgey

Any team with a decent attack is a chance to win test matches. If you take 20 wickets consistently you're a show. The series will be decided primarily on how well Australia's bowlers adjust to English conditions. England won't beat Australia by 170 runs posting two 200-odd scores. It'll be a tight series which I expect us to scrape through and win 4-0 with England holding out nine down in the other match.

Australia pushed South Africa on Australian pitches, the Sth African attack is 10 x the crap being served up by England in the last 2 series.......

Pattinson and Harris both average under 24 with the ball......... Siddle averages 28.

The English bowlers have hardly swung the thing this test, Harris swings the Kookaburra during cloudless days in Brisbane, day after day.

The Duke has always swung more because of the smaller seam and the clear coat they put on the thing....



Pattinson and Harris will be the two best bowlers in this series................

You're not suggesting anything England has is as good as those two blokes, surely? Do you watch cricket in Braille or something?
You aren't suggesting that your guys might actually stay fit for the first time ever through a series are you? Are you deluded or something?

They won't need to stay fit for five tests.

Are we having one of those prediction threads we have for most of the big series? If it hasn't been done, someone start it up ffs.

Your predictions went about as well as the cricket last time. Be the same again.

Now and again you think to yourself that Burgey might actually be a good* bloke. Then an Ashes comes onto the horizon and he rears his true ugly self. Everyone was still using dial-up Internet last time Australia won over here ffs. The Twin Towers were still standing and I was still in school ffs. They've got no chance. The series over there might be closer but ultimately Australia are an average to poor side and don't have a chance against us.
