England's worst fears were realised at the Gabba when Mitchell Starc castled Rory Burns first ball, but bad starts are par for the course in Brisbane.

Johnson has some sympathy for that, telling ABC Sport that there are often plenty of nerves that accompany bowing the first ball of the Test."You're trying to bowl it straight. Get it up there nice and full to see if it swings, you want to try and get the batter to think about the first one at least.

Losing a frontline bowler on day one of the Ashes — like England's Simon Jones in 2002 — is not good for the team.
