Advent-ures in indecision

I am not certain what I want to happen in the third Test starting tomorrow. Obviously England needs to win the Ashes in Australia, but if England are as dominant in this Test as they were in the last one, not only will all the excitement be over, but -- well -- it's a teeny bit dull. So I am hoping that the rejigged Australian team is actually a piece of genius selection and the remaining three Tests will be nail-biting and thrilling.

And I know that some of you are thinking what is the point without Stuart Broad? Fear not, I have four words and a conjunction for you.

Steven Finn:


and James Anderson:



(I couldn't find any pics of him with clothes on.)

Even if you are an American and have no idea what is going on, there is so much to watch for!

I am torn between grinding them into the dirt and great matches.

Wot no Cook??

I have already worshipped at the altar of A. Cook. And will worship there some more ... Trying to show the breadth of talent in the team, you know ;-)

And yes, I feel the same way. I'm almost hoping for a draw in Perth, though will be astonished if the Australians can manage it.
