Broad got involved and his comment read: “Patience Jof, only 1 more day...”

The blockbuster five-match Test series begins with England and Australia locking horns at Edgbaston in Birmingham on Thursday. For England, a home season billed as the most important in a generation started brilliantly with their impressive run to a first men’s World Cup title.

For Australia, an Ashes series win under the dignified leadership of Tim Paine would help draw a line under the ball-tampering scandal in South Africa that led to long bans for former captain Steve Smith, David Warner and Cameron Bancroft.

Australia have not won an Ashes in England for 19 years, with their batsmen struggling against the heavily stitched Dukes ball on pitches that offer seam movement. England, by contrast, have won their last 11 internationals at the raucous Birmingham ground.
