And having just read my work emails some kind soul has swapped shifts for Day Three, back to Ticketmaster methinks

Managed to get our tix for the first 3 days too Very happy chappy

I have a five day pass, although as usual it was painful. Ticketmaster website didn't allow you to pick specific seats and the phone lines were jammed as usual. But this time I managed to get seats at the Main Street end in the lower tier which means we will be the first to get the shade and therefore not sweat our arses off like last time.

Woo Hoo - i got me my posh seats for the Boxing Day Test!

Has anyone had the tickets in the mail yet? I seem to remember reading that the tickets would be despatched 20 July?

Broad Shoulders

I ticked the box that meant you download them and print them

Same here Largely based on a mistrust of the appalling Brisbane postal service

bobbyftm

They always seem to deliver the bills on time

Carbery

I paid extra for Express Post - that service has never let me down so far.

Pollyana

for this week then

Do those of you awaiting the first ball in Brisbane actually feel confident this time or is it just more self-delusion, despite this?



The series loss to India pushes Australia down to fifth in the Test rankings, one place below England going into next month's Ashes.

And if Andrew Strauss's men needed any further indicator of Ricky Ponting side's decline, the two defeats in India followed their defeat by Pakistan at Headingley, making it the first time Australia have lost three Tests in a row since 1988-89.
