Nah Australia should win this; Sri Lanka don't have the bowlers to win in Australia unless Australia's batsmen are actually even ****ter than I currently realise.
England weren't paying quite that much to win the series when I bet on them ftr (I bet on them before the first Test at, IIRC, 7-1) but they were paying about that much to win the second Test which I bet on and of course already won. I think it was only 15-1 rather than 18-1, but yeah. Shafted off a huge win for a third Test Compton ton by the umpire too.

haha....damn man.....maybe I should bet a bit after consulting you.
I would have been pretty big on betting had I not been raised on a diet of how it is bad for you and society etc etc

According to the coach Graham Ford, Sri Lanka are not prepared for this series.. so that shows how confident Sri Lanka are about this series..
Sri Lanka have never been prepared before an overseas tour.. plus their captain has a tendency of going AWOL on overseas tours...but this time considering Pattinson is ruled out and the rest are ordinary without him..he might just decide to stay and boost his average a little bit.

I reckon Lyon will jag a few wickets from utterly idiotic shots. Slog sweeps especially.

I meant more I don't think he will get much of a chance to bowl even, so will be a bit of a waste of space. Probably should play him anyway but I think you could chuck another bat in there for all the use he will get. Not that it would happen, and it would confuse matters regarding ponting succession but you know what I mean

Entirely justified IMO. They have one frontline seamer bowling on what's either an alleged greentop or a historical road.
Picking rain affected bore-draw.

Has the Aussie batting order been locked in yet?
I reckon now is the time to settle the order for the Ashes
Cowan
Warner
Hughes
Clarke
Watson
Hussey
Wade
This way Watto gets to open against the 2nd new ball

I suspected as much....but Clarke at 4 is much better for Australia.....unless all he cares about is the best ever average at 5 that he currently holds....or maybe mentally he really can't bat anywhere but 5

SL seamers are somewhat underrated IMO. In the right conditions Kula and co can be a handful.

Why would we move our best batsmen from a position that he finds most comfortable to one he performs terribly inI suspected as much....but Clarke at 4 is much better for Australia.....unless all he cares about is the best ever average at 5 that he currently holds....or maybe mentally he really can't bat anywhere but 5
