Ashes


England know. Rarely can have such home team a low-key prelude to a series of lights spread by Lions roaring down under Scottish and flying in SW19. In recent internal dramas are almost a year behind it, when differences emerged Kevin Pietersen with his colleagues can not be reconciled moments.

Those walls give the appearance now overhaul, belies the some predictions moment more mischievous, including from then Australia coach, Mickey Arthur, who felt that the rift could take "years to heal."

Arthur, who ended up being on the wrong side of the rift in recent times, in his case a two-fold - with the players who objected to harden him, and administrators who caviled when the latitude to him.


There was also a clear sense that Arthur, a good coach and a good man, may not be the correct match for this team. Its success has come with a group of experienced and knowledgeable, South Africa's strong mentally, and once he lost the services first Brad [Hdan], and then Ricky Ponting, then Mike Hussey, he is an update of some individuals is very fragile, and used to get their own way.

All the same, it is unlikely that displaced Arthur was Darren Lehmann was not normal situation, the coach of Australia in the round of parallel England, and in favor, dating back to more than two decades with the head of James Sutherland, CEO of Cricket Australia: When Lehman moved to Victoria in the early 90s, he played for Carlton, which involved a social club with a football team, where he was CFO Sutherland.

While he did not "function for Boys", has been appointed Lehman kind of bounce to the Convention, most of the earliest on the way to the appointment of Bob Simpson coached Australia 27 years ago: recall of seasoned old, in order to reconnect with traditions skin disease.

There is a paradox here, in this little love lost between ever Stern Simpson and laissez-faire Lehman, oil and water as a player and coach. But Lehman stands in a good position and arrival in his system that he knows what it is like a nuisance against one.

He was also assigned incidental benefit of subjecting the huge chorus of "not in my days," former players, never entirely comfortable Australia with a foreign coach, and remarkably quick to support old mucka in his new job.

Differences in perceptions between hobo Australia Champions Trophy team, coached by Arthur, and the ashes of her band refreshed, under the management of Lehman, can now hardly be more severe. But it may be more a situation where we are looking.

Remember Julio Iglesias, and Eurocrooner who insisted on being photographed only his right? Viewed from one angle, Australia has made the party always strength in depth.

In bouncy Pattinson, ballsy Siddle, skiddy Harris and swingy Stark and birds, they pack a lot of heat - more than others, in fact, since the last Ashes series win Australia, at his home in 2006-07. Australia is much less dependent on the spearhead of them, Pattinson, from England on their own, and Anderson, while the fourth line paceman Stark is more terrifying bowler of onions England. Maybe not much is calculated in a series of three experiments, but it will definitely be more than five Test course materials forming a semi-circle of ten test by at least eight games will form part of the back-to-back encounters.

Australian some problems, moreover, still irreducible nowadays. Two have proved the opening match of this round somewhere between nothing and not much. International Tennis must plunder runs from the Division of 2 Provincial attacks. Phil Hughes in 2009 when he smashed 574 runs in five innings of the first class to Middlesex, only to fall by the wayside after testing the Lord. Step up to wait for Australia's Top Six is ​​about the size of a flop Fosbury.

One dilemma of their own making proving particularly stubborn. Since 2009, Australia has maintained more publishers than any other international team - a third more than that, for example, from England. Successive Publishers replaced Michael Clarke and Ed Cowan in Wooster. Such as self-healing can leave powder burns on test matches.

Technology may be the case, so it's probably just a bunch of runners in the Australian team, some volatile, and some wood, some aggressive, some non-ambitious. Whatever the case, Australia has declined so far to take the first step to address the problem, which is, of course, admitted to have one. Arthur never make progress on this issue, given his willingness to highlight the positive, Lehman may not find it easy, too.

If Lehman and Clark does not seem to be singing from the same songsheet quite yet, Australia is at least making positive noises. Australians are more generally for it. The uptick in optimism is welcome. And hit England in 2010-11 from the public huge negative throughout their hosts. "Until I saw it," Anderson wrote in a recent autobiography, "I would have thought that it is inconceivable that the Australian public, and the media in the country, it may be very negative toward their team."

This lead in the series have felt more and not like it, and embrace the happy Lehman by cricket fans crystallize Australian dissatisfaction with the system of wellness, and rotation policies, and scheduling chaos and constipation managerialism.

Personally, I'm not convinced that these problems were as much as symptoms of malaise: England is the best team for being the highest well-organized, and still accommodate players of flair and spontaneity. But this was a happy past two weeks, because we need to have a quotient of Pommie bashing Aussie baiting, and only what is throwing dust for? Not much has changed so that this does not keep the ashes of England to lose. You can expect, however, Australians to make their mark - as in fact you are always possible.
