    Don't these things usually start when the kid who owns the stumps and bails shows up?

    Reports suggesting that it's a toss up between Broad and Leach for the last spot. Personally, I'd be picking Broad ahead of Woakes anyway, and would only leave Leach out if Stokes isn't fit enough to bowl.

    Think to avoid unreliable streaming sites I'll get a 25 quid monthly pass that you can watch on two devices at the same time, which will cover most of the series.

    We should do better than people expect. Australia haven't played a test match or much red ball Cricket at all lately. A lot of the guys are playing their first game since the t20 without a Sheffield Shield warm up game. Their bowling attack is class but batting wise they rely heavily on the same few ageing lads.

    Yes, I really hope Woakes does not play. If we go without a spinner then I think we will be in trouble with only Root's part time off spin to rely on.

    I nearly missed the start too. The BBC website and Willow App are not always clear. You can’t change the time to the zone you’re in, or the zone in which the game is being played.
    I always thought the Tests were Thursday through Monday, but what do I know.

    Certainly used to be Thursday to Monday but then again, football used to be just Saturdays at 3.00

    I'm not confident with our batting and I think we'll do well to get over 200. Let's hope they prove me wrong :)
