We're back with some proper cricket quizzing this time, as the new test series starts in earnest. Gary has delivered five full days of questions (none of this two-day malarkey), as Lee and Dave face-off in this vital first test.

We hope you enjoy.  The round names are: Round 2 - Nick Knight's in white Satin Round 3 - We made our love at Newlands, through the Matthew Wade Round 4 - Itsy bitsy, teeny weeny, yellow polka dot Ntini Round 5 - Hooper Freak, Hooper Freak, he's Hooper Freaky.

We kick off this year with our shorter quiz format, which revisits the most recent Ashes series.
