Andrew Strauss won the toss and chose to bat in the first match of the Ashes series today. The Aussies team was announced yesterday with the three bowlers Mitchell Johnson, Peter Siddle and Ben Hilfenhaus into the team and the English team was just announced before the match with the same line up. Xavier Doherty is to play his first debut today.
A bright sunny day is prevailing in Brisbane where as a frequent amount of clouds can be observed. The rain might be little unpredictable at Brisbane with the clouds filling the sky. The English team has landed in Australian land after an Ashes series win in the Australia before twenty four years. This test might be highly challenging to the English players as they are in a dream of winning the Ashes in the Australian soil after years.
The series is very important to both the teams as the Aussies need to fill up the flaws of the recent loss with Sri Lanka.
