The ones who talk much will not deliver as much as they talk. This is my logic, probably the one the current Kangaroos should apply it to themselves too.
The series is evenly poised with both the teams have their pros and cons equally.
But the Aussie camp has begun the talk banter, barraging the pommies with their "scar" talks and "fear" talks.
The Aussies are very clever in talking about one series that had happened in 2013, and forgot the rest of the series those happened after 2009 until current day.
These are the results of the Ashes series results since 2009 :

These are the results of the Ashes series results since 2009 :
| 65 | 2009 | England | 8 July 2009 | 5 | 1 | 2 | 2 | England | England | |
| 66 | 2010–11 | Australia | 25 November 2010 | 5 | 1 | 3 | 1 | England | England | |
| 67 | 2013 | England | 10 July 2013 | 5 | 0 | 3 | 2 | England | England | |
| 68 | 2013–14 | Australia | 21 November 2013 | 5 | 5 | 0 | 0 | Australia | Australia | |
| 69 | 2015 | England | 5 July 2015 | 5 | 2 | 3 | 0 | England | England |
The ultimate truth is, the men in yellow could manage only one test series win ever since 2009, thanks to Mitchel Johnson.
Guys like Lyon, Handscomb and David warner, please get back to the winning ways than playing mind games to the opponent, talks won't cook rice!
As an Aussie fan, I would like to see a series win that is long time due! However the reality is, England have more chances to win this.
They have the best 4 of them playing the ashes for at least for the 4th time. Joe Root, Alister Cook, James Anderson, and Stuart Broad. They have the best all rounders of this era, Moen Ali, Ben stokes (Who is not in the squad though) and Chris Woakes.
They have the better wicket keeper batsman in Barristaw.
Comparatively, Aussie army have less experienced Ashes squad.
Selection was a surprise, to bring tim Paine back into the Squad when he is 30+ in age; brought in Bancroft for the test minded Renshaw (though he didn't perform well in shield matches).
Dropping wade is good, but he is more vocal than the other options, his famous "nice gary" would have done tricks at the gabba when Lyon bowls.
More over, the pacemen attack of Aussies never performed together. Let's see, it is gonna be a tough match to win for Aussies, all depends on the mighty Mitchel Starc.
Even though Englishmen are advantageous in all departments, I feel the home crowd and "doing the australia way" would earn victories for Australia, I could only hope!
Hala Australia!
