Image via WikipediaThe familiar Aussie fixation is back. A consolation Test match victory in a dead rubber has given enough confidence for the new England Captain, Kevin Pietersen to talk of beating the Aussies. "It was not far away from the perfect start and from the way I want to play cricket in the future," he said. "If we play like this, we will beat Australia. This is a starting stage. The key is to turn up to every single Test like we have this week."
Conveniently forgotten is the fact that the Australian series is one year away. In the meanwhile, England play India in India and then take on the West Indies.
When will England realise that it is premature to talk of reclaiming the Ashes and this false bravado serves to turn them into a laughing stock of the cricketing world.
Do the deed and then we will applaud.
