England captain Alastair Cook has claimed that his side "can't wait" to start the third Ashes Test at Edgbaston tomorrow.
The five-match series is currently level at 1-1 following Australia's emphatic victory at Lord's last time out.
Despite being humbled by the tourists at the 'Home of Cricket', Cook insists that England are raring to go.
"The lads are talking about the opportunity which is now ahead of us - 1-1 in an Ashes series coming to Edgbaston, a fantastic ground... we're looking forward to that challenge against a really good side," he told reporters. "We can't wait for tomorrow.
"It's 1-1, a three-match series now, and we need to win two games to do something very special. That's what is keeping everyone going. Lord's was an absolute disaster in one sense - after Cardiff to play as badly as that, but that's gone now."
Mark Wood is an injury doubt for England ahead of tomorrow's first day. Steve Finn is on standby to replace the 25-year-old should he fail to be selected.
