Jonathan Agnew's verdict

Live build-upMatch preview Eng news Aus news Photos Fun and tips


Captains Ponting and Flintoff get their hands on the urn
England's defence of their Ashes urn will begin in less than two hours - and in Australia the players will now have woken up to the realisation that finally the moment is upon them.
The first Ashes Test starts at midnight GMT and, with the excitement building, everyone with any connection to the England team is being asked for their views.

Tell us where you will be watching or listening, what your predictions are, and who you think should play, on 606.

606 debate: First Ashes Test


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1hr 30mins to go:
Just an hour remains until captains Flintoff and Ponting argue the toss, and BBC Five Live's Mark Pougatch is confident the Gabba remains a bat-first wicket.

"It's unthinkable that England won't bat if they win the toss. The Brisbane pitch looks rock hard, it's very bouncy, very quick - a little like the Oval - and it should lend itself to great cricket.

"England can't really contemplate losing here in the context of the series but, what we do know, is that the time for talking has come to an end and the actual cricket is finally upon us."

And the views from the 606 site:
"Up here in sunny Scotland we wish the Enland cricket team well. Hope the selectors are pro-active though and play Monty Panesar. Simon Jones and Michael Vaughan are going to be missed but i still think that England can pull it off." EDDIE40

"It's 01.20 in Abu Dhabi, UAE, and the pimms is on ice and we are all looking forward to ENGLAND carrying on from the last Ash's series." diamondchalkstar

"Its quite evident that the Australians are extremely angry over the last ashes and are going to defeat England without a spot of bother." samirdada

"For once I don't mind working late! Watching BBC website coverage from Moscow (unfortunately cricket's not that popular here, TV coverage will be limited). Counting down...Come on the boys!! Barmy army... LuluAitch



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Two hours to go:
News agency AFP reports that over 40,000 Englishmen and women are travelling to Australia for the Ashes, with over 10,000 expected at the Gabba - capacity 41,000.


England's 'Barmy Army' could have a big role to play in Australia

"We don't mind having them here," a Brisbane cabbie told AFP. "They're the kind of pommie b*****ds who don't mind being called pommie b*****ds."

That's not bad considering they tried to limit how many tickets were being sold to England supporters.

Mind you, i suppose with so many poms over there, it's no surprise.
