Question Ashes 2010 thread. Who's gonna win?

Who will win this particular 2010 Ashes series, considering England lost 5 nil last time they played on Australian soil.

Put your prediction here.

I say Australia to pip it 2-1 with two games drawn because of bad weather etc...

Hope it's a cracker, whichever team wins.

Hope they haven't brought that national choking habit with them

England 2-1

England 3-1 if Hauritz plays the whole series.

As a dual citizen, I'm going to hedge my bets and say us.

(I'm really hoping England win.)

Yep she's fine. They (the family) take her for walks and she had a swim today too! Watching for ticks though, but they are looking after her well so far.

England. Their current bowling lineup is superb, and they've ripped through the state teams like a sharp implement through something that's not terribly difficult to cut.

Probably true though.
