As England's test series against Pakistan starts, cricket fans are being urged to start booking for the Ashes tour of Australia.
The biennial contest between England and Australia starts on 23 November in Brisbane with the first of the five matches that form the series.
With around 40,000 England fans thought to be heading to Oz to see if England can retain the Ashes, those heading down under are being advised prepare their trip now.
Rajeev Dani, chief operating officer of a major Australian hotel group, said: 'Bookings are already extremely strong, especially group bookings, and we expect to be fully booked across all properties within the next two months.'
The tour continues in Adelaide, Perth, and Melbourne before finishing on 2 January in Sydney.
