Cricket: Clarke in, Bollinger out for first Ashes test

Michael Clarke will play in the first test in Brisbane after overcoming injury but bowler Doug Bollinger will be missing the first test due to Victorian bowler Peter Siddle being selected instead. 


I think that Doug Bollinger should have played instead of Peter Siddle. This first test will be very intriguing and will definitely set the tone for the rest of the series. Having said that I think England are currently in much better form than Australia and that was evident in their thumping of Australia A. 


The 2010/11 Ashes series should be a great contest but I'm expecting England to win.
