I'm loving the excitement around the Ashes series already! 
Stokes is definitely on fire right now, his bowling skills are insane! But, I gotta say, Australia's batting line-up does look a bit shaky at times... maybe it's just me being too nostalgic for the good old days of Aussie cricket when they were invincible? 
And, oh man, Steve Smith's jibe at Monty Panesar is lowkey hilarious! I love how Aussie captains are always trying to stir up drama, but sometimes they just come across as try-hards.
I'm also super curious about Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood's involvement in the series - will they be playing a key role or getting left out? And what about Root's average scoreline... is he due for an Ashes ton?
Only time will tell, but I'm already hooked on this series!
