I’d love us to win it obviously but not had anyone I can think of have a few mo the over their to test the type of pitch we’d be messing with I don’t get why some don’t go do that, I mean there are a few Aussies that come over here and do it!
3-1 Aus is my prediction |

I'm feeling a 3-0 for the aussies, with England sneaking a couple of draws in. Unless the top order fire and score big, the middle order are going to be opened up to Mitchell Starcs express pace, which could see us skittled.
Big responsibility resting on Cook, Root, Bairstow, and Moeen to get the runs. Coupled with a bowling attack that is one injury away from being rendered toothless.
The aussies have the same problem from what I've seen of them in their last few games. That said, on their turf, pitches that will negate James Anderson and Moeen, they have the edge I reckon. |

Nah ozzies will be lucky to scrape a draw out of this series, we have batting problems at 2 and 3, they have batting problems at 1 2 3 and 5, over for bowler we are better equipped, if they build out he's for express pace we have broad and Finn to exploit that, spin we have covered, and I have a feeling cook and root will be on fire, is Steve Smith doesn't score the Aussies are screwed |

Steve Finn has gone home injured, won't be a part of the tour sadly |

I don't think either has the depth of batting to play out a draw, unless weather intervenes. I do think that the sides are pretty closely matched, despite our relatively weak squad.
With five results I think it will finish 3-2 but cannot decide who to - probably the Aussies, but not by any means certain. |

I thought we would be ok if stokes played, but doesnt look good. 1-3 to the aussies i think unless anderson and broad have a great series. Dont rate Ball and we have no real spinner again. |
