Never fear, as Captain Cookie Monster guides England safely to a disappointing series defeat in a tour of the UAE that started so promisingly, it's not long until meaningful Test cricket resumes elsewhere.

Tomorrow New Zealand will begin a hotly-anticipated three-Test series v. the evil Australians in the old foe's back yard. Some will say it's not worth following at all as New Zealand always enter this series full of hope and then rapidly shit the bed, but let's consider the evidence...

Can an Australian side hammered by England just a few months ago really cope with Kane the Wonder Boy, no. 1 batsman in the world, with Brendon "Attack" McCullum, the bravest and most attacking captain in the world, and with Southee and Jay from the Inbetweeners, the most feared new ball attack in the world? 3-0 New Zealand!
