The Ashes: Australia v England
Here is the schedule:

Thu 23 - Mon 27 November: 1st Test - Australia v England
Brisbane Cricket Ground, Woolloongabba, Brisbane

Fri 1 - Tue 5 December: 2nd Test - Australia v England
Adelaide Oval

Thu 14 - Mon 18 December: 3rd Test - Australia v England
W.A.C.A. Ground, Perth

Tue 26 - Sat 30 December: 4th Test - Australia v England
Melbourne Cricket Ground

Tue 2 - Sat 6 January: 5th Test - Australia v England
Sydney Cricket Ground

I reckon the telecasts will be pretty popular in Phuket. Daytime bars showing the matches will do a good trade!!

Come on Aussie come on!

As a Brit do you think the Aussie bar would be a good place for me to watch England retain the Ashes?

55555 346 -3 great day for the Aussies and England on the back foot from the first day. England will struggle to draw this match if the Aussies score heavily again 2nd day.

Ponting........... excellent innings.
Harmison......... crap

Plusses for England were the bowling of Giles & Flintoff.....and good fielding from Collingwood & Pietersen.
