Slow start

Hmm, well it was hardly unexpected but England are looking pretty undercooked going into the first test in Brisbane.



Harimson especially looks out of sorts but given his recent form and his history of being an unhappy tourist it's hardly surprising. When you think of the bowling attack we had last time round it's not that surprising we've struggled.

Anyway there is still reasons to be positive...We actually lost the first test in 2005 and Brisbane is meant to be a batsman's wicket. If the batting holds up then we can hold our own but we need Harmison and Anderson to stand up and be counted if we are going to win.
