The 2005/6 Ashes series in Australia is already proving a confusing affair. Details of ticketing arrangements have been delayed as Cricket Australia try and work out how to squeeze a few Aussies into their own grounds.

Adding a potentially further element of confusion is the name of the sponsor. 3 Mobile have the lucrative privelege of being the Series Sponsor but by the look of the logo that has been prepared for the Ashes, the series could be referred to as “The 3 Test series”, which will be mildly amusing by the time the fourth test is played.
