Here's a good idea, give the Aussies a nice warm welcome and a one day tournament when they arrive! England's schedule makers have scored another massive own goal by letting the Aussies warm up in some one day cricket which is a perfect way to hone your skills, see all the grounds, test all the pitches, and generally get yourselves in form. And then pop along to Lords, the Aussies favourite and most successful venue where they would have already won the one day series, for the first test.
I would have taken them from the airport straight to Edgbaston, then on to Trent Bridge in back to back matches, England would be 2-0 up, Oval next and then Leeds, back to Lords for a meaningless run out with the Ashes won. The administrators at the ECB need to start helping our guys out instead of lining their pockets, they also need to attend a seminar with Sir Clive Woodward - ITS ALL ABOUT PREPARATION!
