Australia will crush England at Old Trafford Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

This is the best Test series for 20 years so I think a poll is in order.

Let's see if the English posters really believe in their team.

Stand up and be counted now if you think England will win.

I don't think they will.

And here is one more reason why

Whilst I voted yes, I wouldn't be totaly surprised to see the series drawn. I htink we will win at Old Trafford, Magrath will come back for trent Bridge and the Aussies will win. Then the last one at the oval will be a tense draw with the Aussies just hanging on.

They're both a bit fat and good at cricket.

There's a bit of a comparison for you.

Of course, Freddie seems like a nice guy and Warne is a total a-hole but there you go.

Flintoff has a long way to go before you can say he's a great

He certainly has the potential. I like watching him play.

But what about your daft selectors? Not sure whether to pick Flintoff or Pieterson, goodness!!@!!!!

Er...

They weren't sure whether to pick Pieterson or Thorpe? There was never any question of Flintoff not playing.

Must have been Thorpe. Its a shame he's ruled himself out - a couple of the English top order are looking a little shaky. His experience could be invaluable. Stupid English selectors....

Don't forget the 2nd innings. It would be just like england to get bowled out for a 160 in the 2nd innings and then setting the Aussies an attainable target like 350 or so.
