Sheffield vs. Brisbane
They may be a race of British rejects, but you can't help but be envious of the Australians when you think of the climate in which they'll be enjoying the first test: compare Sheffield (top) with Brisbane...
The first session will be crucial for the series: Australia will most likely want to bat first, although earlier reports suggesting the weather would get hotter would suggest that conditions may favour the bowling side first. Some have said that playing at home gives the Aussies the equivalent of a 2-0 advantage. I'm not sure things are that dire yet, but the first day's play will be incredibly important in the outcome of the series.
Come on England.
