    Doesn't look too bad on the telly, but they've probably turned the brightness up...

        Aye. Was quite bright this morning, not a break in the cloud now.

        Trott's out of the blocks quick...

          A lot of hubris in the press about this. Not a good idea to underestimate the Australians.

            I have a cheeky bet on Root to be top batsman at 9-1

              Not a bad shout. I saw him in the one dayer against NZ at Trent Bridge and he played a disciplined innings. He wasn't there for the slog-fest a the end but that's hardly relevant to test cricket anyway.

              Interestingly, our office Kiwi is supporting Oz. Apparently it's another of these 'anyone but England' scenarios. Fecking colonials.

                  Pietersen is the man in this series. Out to prove something, and he does like doing it vs. the Aussies.

                  However, Trott's average in the ashes is nearly 100 and better than Bradman...

                    Why are you laughing? You've just lost 18p commission.
