Having looked at the Aussie potential lineups I think its good time to be an England fan :two_thumbs_up: Their top seven most likely going to be Warner (sitting duck in England) Cowan (sitting duck in England) Hughes (sitting duck) Clarke (world class) Khawaja (sitting duck) Watson (decent, but probs going to be injured) Wade (decent) Their backups are going to be Quiney, Maxwell, Steve Smith :hysterical::hysterical: Bowling wise, Pattinson Cummins Starc are going to be very good but they are likely to break down any moment. Their spinner(s) are ****. Predictions?

As a captain or their current form? As a captain, Clarke is way ahead of Cook. Cook is a horrible Test captain TBH.

+1 then Though Cook will have the benefit from his form. He has a lot of players to bat around him unlike Clarke. :agree:

They are going to get a hammering, Clarke only batsman good enough to prosper in England the rest are garbage. Bowling line up is massively over rated too due to SL playing like morons.

Eng is the better team with the home advantage. If for some odd reason the Aussie quicks give them an early lead in the series, they can produce slower tracks with Swann & Monty giving them a big advantage.

If we wanted to go down that route we can make 5 rank turners and play Monty and Swann. Seeing as Lyon is **** and their batsman barring Clarke can't play spin, we'd win with ease. In that lineup, only Clarke can play spin whilst England have Cook, KP, Prior, Compton and Root who are/seem at ease with spin bowling.

Wishful thinking, arrogant English always lose. When they talk less they perform better.
