    Australia have sacked head coach Micky Arthur just 16 days before the start of the Ashes .......

    The Aussies certainly seem to be trying their best to scupper
    any chance of beating us in Test Series.

    My only concern,is that all this internal trouble will
    galvanize their squad and make them stronger.

    No one more dangerous than a wounded animal.

    Pretty bizarre to sack him at this time, no time for the new guy to bed in before The Ashes starts.

    I've followed cricket since the mid-1970s and this has to be the worst Australian side I've seen. They are there for the taking....if only we can get our act together.

    Surprising and a huge risk. Perhaps they are just hoping Lehmann will freshen things up and keep the players on their toes. The players will want to prove themselves and cement their place in the side under a new coach.
