Lets face it, you can hardly look back at the last Ashes can you?

Now why would I want to do a silly thing like that? Even if we had won, there is no sense in looking to the past, in the end the past does not win you a game in the future

Can't say I'm too concerned!

Exactly.

A team low down in the international rankings beats another team who are slightly higher than them in the rankings, shouldn't really worry the team who are number one should it?

Melon. Dream on.

Just how bad are India? Or is it the resurgent Aussies?

melon · 15 Jan 2012, 10:52

I like to think the latter..... the Indians cost me a function tomorrow... free booze, free food...... I was actually cheering for them today..... woe is me.

Ain't difficult to buy an Aussie is it?

melon · 15 Jan 2012, 11:41

ha ha, well I still didn't want them to win, but a little fight and a century from Tendulkar would have been nice

After watching England these last couple of weeks I reckon the Aussies may even be favourites for the Ashes.
I knew we were in trouble after Monty managed to spin out six wickets!

chairboys · 04 Feb 2012, 15:44

are we really ranked number one? effing useless

Yeah I've seen a couple of updates from the England tests, will make for an interesting Ashes series I think.
