I wish we were about to start this series as that would mean the Aussie v India series would be behind us and we might be able to concentrate on cricket rather than controversy.Having seen the New Zealand side that played against Bangladesh you have to fancy our chances of a win in this series as the New Zealand side looks pretty ordinary outside the established names.

A big series for us and in particular Michael Vaughan,anything other than a series win could see him lose the captaincy for the summer.
