Just an hour until the start of the Ashes. Since the play is going to run from something like midnight to 7am, I’m not going to listen to it all, but I want to at least stay up to hear the start of play.
I can’t help feeling that England have less momentum going into this series than the last one, but if our key men play well — Flintoff, Harmison and Hoggard particularly, but the batsmen as well — I don’t think Australia will find it easy. We’ll miss Simon Jones, but we’ve still got match-winning bowlers.
I’m kind of blathering at this point.
*fingers crossed*

OK, we’ve lost the toss. We *really* need those bowlers to be hot in the first session. I want the Aussies to be scared for their front teeth.
