Gotta be honest, I have a bad feeling about this.
Firstly because it's Brisbane, where we haven't won since 1986 and have only twice not been hammered since.
And secondly because their bowling attack is still excellent, particularly in Australian conditions, whilst our batting continues to be brittle as hell - other than Root, I don't know that there's any England batsman that I would have any confidence in averaging over 30 this series.
I think we'll probably bowl them out cheaply a couple of times this series as well - because their batting is certainly not intimidating at the moment either - but I still fear that they're the better team overall.
Still, if it gets too bad, and I can just stick my 2010/11 DVDs on again......now that was an England team!
