England strong favourites Hardy-but sure you'd nevber know, it's a funny old game at the end of the day and you'll always need a bit of luck

[DuffleKing]

Strauss gone third ball. brutal shot to gulley

[tyroneboi]

I fancy the English to retain the ashes maybe with a 2-2 or 3-1 series score. KP and Swanny to be the main men!
