Oh for sure, early on 'I knew' they'd lose. I had already booked the holiday and would've taken it in any case (could do with a break TBH).
Just that it's typical that I deliberately take holiday to view it, and we lose heavily. That scenario always seems to happen when I sit down and decide to 'see the match through'!
Murphy's Law and all that...

Toss lost, one hand behind our backs already .
Will be interesting to see how Bell and Finn get on in the next 5 days.
Chris this could be the last time you get to slate the Shermanator at this level

Now that's what I call a good pitch
And Finn well done for delivering an inswinging yorker to Clarke, at last an English pace bowler since Gough to know how to deliver the perfect ball

Mental! Just mental.
Okay, so it's 'ideal' English conditions... But NO WAY are they "60 all out in 18.3 ovs" conditions!!!
Ha ha, how I laugh that - of all morts - it's Broad that is their nemesis in all this carnage. His figures? 8-15!

Sat round the pool on my hols watching it today and how much did I enjoy that with the Sky Sports web commentary - Root has just hit a six or as it is now known 1/10th of an Aussie 1st innings

That ball of Warne to Gatting still amazes me, one of the best deliveries there has ever been. And the Ashes will never be the same without the amazing commentary and punditry of Richie Benaud
