Pitch and conditions
“Any bowler who is not on top of their game can expect to be punished, particularly once the batsmen are in,” Chris Adams, Surrey’s cricket manager,
“Australia certainly have in-form batsmen at the moment, and it could be quite painful for the bowlers if they’re allowed to get set.”
Tthe weather forecast is a bit of a concern, It has been glorious in London all week, but the rain is set to return this week.
England (probable) 1 Andrew Strauss (capt), 2 Alastair Cook, 3 Ravi Bopara, 4 Ian Bell, 5 Paul Collingwood, 6 Matt Prior (wk), 7 Andrew Flintoff, 8 Stuart Broad, 9 Graeme Swann, 10 James Anderson, 11 Graham Onions.
Australia (possible) 1 Simon Katich, 2 Phillip Hughes, 3 Ricky Ponting (capt), 4 Michael Hussey, 5 Michael Clarke, 6 Marcus North, 7 Brad Haddin (wk), 8 Mitchell Johnson, 9 Peter Siddle, 10 Ben Hilfenhaus, 11 Stuart Clark.
Shane Watson: “So the intensity is really starting to rise up. I really enjoyed it. It’s great cricket. It’s great to have some really competitive banter out there. Everyone’s going hammer and tongs to give yourself the best chance of winning. I love it.”
Graeme Onions: “Andrew Flintoff is key for England. He’s an important player if he’s fully fit, but I think that’s a massive thing to say. With Jonathan Trott and Ryan Sidebottom in the squad, deep down we’re pretty confident that if he’s not fit, we’ve got a good enough team to win.”
