England v Australia at Birmingham, 3rd Test - Day 1 (The Ashes)
An Australian cricketer's confidence, at least in public utterances, never wavers. Not in the face of sparse results, a growing list of doubters or being behind in an Ashes series for the second time in consecutive tours. The players are preparing to enter the third Test with an opener who hasn't been able to cope with the short ball, a blunt bowling spearhead and a number of possible permutations over their XI, but with the way they talk it's almost like they own the 1-0 advantage.
There are only positives in the problems of Phillip Hughes and Mitchell Johnson, and opportunities for those who might be so lucky to replace them. Michael Clarke, the vice-captain, said the make-up of the team had not been discussed among the group this week, other than everyone being told by the captain and coach that they could play at Edgbaston. It's not quite a crisis, but with only three matches remaining the time for cheerful chatter must soon switch to on-field action.
