England skipper Joe Root nullifies talk of Australia enjoying the edge for next week's Brisbane Test

Joe Root believes his England team is wiser than the one 'caught out' by the hype and then whitewashed 5-0 in Australia on his last Ashes visit. The England captain was still a relative novice Test batsman four years ago, and ended his maiden tour down under by losing his place for the final defeat in Sydney. This time, he is determined there will be no repeat - and has begun by setting a much different tone, insisting England will not be sucked into the heightening war of words before a ball is bowled in anger.
