The hazlewood injury changes things. Although its disappointing from the contest point of view as you want to see the best out there, we have to make it count
 
Score - 3-1 Australia
Player of the series - Aus - Starc Eng - Stokes
Most Runs - Aus - Smith Eng - Root

2-2..all games over within 4 days.

Neither team can bat.

Expect 1 test to be done inside 2 1/2 days.

Highest score 330 in first 4 tests.
 
Australia will win.
Ollie Pope won’t score as many runs in the entire Series as he did in that pointless warmup game.
 
Dunno. But I’ll make some of my own predictions

Hazelwood to miss at least 2 tests
Carey to play a really annoying innings when we’re on top
Bashir to play only 1 test and get some tap
Brook to laugh when getting out at least once
Australia to end the series with 2 totally different openers
Root to score a double ton
Cummins to act like a smug prick
Ticking off the last one already, and the series hasn’t even started

Wouldn’t waste your money. We are awful to watch. Braindead. Play every innings like it’s a t20. Only root can dig in and build a score. Maybe stokes too. The rest play stupid shots. Basic cricket is wats needed back to basics. I’d bet our best county championship team could do a better effort. Wait until all the Aussie first choices are back. Will humiliate us again.

I think I’m just missing the Root double ton
