		| The great spinner believes his countrymen will regain the Ashes unless the opposition are more adventurous and thinks Mitchell Johnson may make a huge impact |  
You would have thought he had learnt to keep his mouth shut, unfortunately not, its starting to get embarrassing for old Shane.

			Lets face it, they had such a long time of superiority over England in cricket so it is bound to be a hard bitter pill to swallow to see us moving into a position to win the Ashes for a long time to come.

		| Openers Alastair Cook and Michael Carberry shone with unbeaten centuries as England made 318 without loss on the first day of their four-day Ashes warm-up game against Australia A in Hobart. |  
Early days yet of course but it seems like mighty mouth Warne may just have emulated what his rugby union compatriot Eddie Jones did prior to the 2003 RWC final and done England's team talk for them...     
Let's hope they can carry this form forward into the Ashes series.

			Will be taping highlights if the score is good when I wake up each morning.  Just my luck to be working every day of this test so cannot stay up and watch.
