Yeah, batting first. It is good news but I really wanted to watch an Australian collapse.

Surprised at no Warner, really thought he would be in after the talk of the last few days.

Ummm, must admit that I'm surprised by the inclusion of Agar. Not quite a Michael Beer like entry to top class international cricket, and no doubt he will be hoping not to follow a similar trajectory. Still, Lyon must be wondering what he has to do to prove he is the best spinner in Australia. Better bowling average than Vettori FFS.

Anyway, as an Englishmen in Australia, I'd want us to beat your best side and that includes Lyon IMO.

And G'day to all. I hope to stick around a bit this time, if the kids and the missus will just let me have some time to watch the bloody cricket....

Bat first?

England batting first. Good news, looking forward to seeing how Root goes at the top, and excited to see Pattinson and Starc, not seen much of them, but heard good things. Should be a good morning of cricket!
