Pitches for the ashes

I do believe AUS struggle against swing bowling Vass has trouble them in SriLanks, then Eng bowlers can really do well

We've only got the one real 'swing' bowler, thats Matthew Hoggard (not including Anderson at the moment!). Harmison, Simon Jones and Flintoff rely on line, length and seam movement. The last time Hoggard played against Australia, he got ripped apart, although he is a better bowler now compared to then.

Swing friendly pitches.Not too sure though cos of the weather affecting swing.

Aussies are more of seamers .England have an advantage in Hoggard who will swing it the most in either team.

Not much though can be said but swing and sluugish pitch so that the Aussies dont just whiz past 400 in a day .That will have England out of the contest

but if the selectors think its goin to swing, they'll pick lee. Nobody can play his 150kph+ out swingers....................NOBODY!!!!

Nah...a double header will do the trick...
Well then Australia could call heads! What they really need to do is embed a microphone into the coin and create liquid crystal displays on either side of the coin. The microphone then records the call (since the visiting captain calls). This recording is converted into a digital signal. A boolean check is then executed and the LCD displays the OPPOSITE side of the calling so that England win the toss. There--it wasn't that hard was it. :D

OR we could just let Ponting catch a glimpse of the double 'tailed' coin just before the toss.....
