Justin Langer faced the first ball from Harmison in 2005 and the sequel in 2006-07, when he was spoiling for a fight and shadow-boxing before the anthems were played. But he still regards the first session at Lord's four years ago as the best two hours of cricket he has experienced.

 

"Classic," said Langer, who will watch the opening skirmishes today from a function in London. "It was like playing in an AFL grand final, everything was in fast forward, Harmison was bowling like the wind and then Flintoff came on. I got hit on the elbow, Punter [Ponting] got his eye cut, Haydos [Matthew Hayden] got hit on the helmet, which I don't think I had ever seen before. It was just absolutely flying and we knew we were in for a contest. I looked around and there were 10 other Englishmen all over us. I said to Haydos, 'these guys mean business'.

DECLARE STRAUSS FOR FUCKS SAKE

Toss won

 

Eng bat

We play 2 spinners, Monty over Rashid.

 

Aussies - Hauritz and Hilfenhaus plays, Clark misses out.

 

So not a single bowler with any ashes experience!

What's the difference between Jermaine Jackson and the Aussie cricket team?

I love Katherine Jenkins

Shit houses for playing Monty.

 

Hope he proves the selectors right.
