shower, I saw Warner go and thought we'd still be okay so went to bed.

What was the cause of the other 4 wickets? Bad luck? Poor shot choice? Good bowling from the English?

Clarke, Smith and Rogers got themselves out  :-[

Would not say Rogers got himself out the ball slowed after hitting a footmark causing him to spoon the ball rather than hit it. Clarke and Smith agree with.

To me, it looked like he got rattled when he hit the 90s. Usually doesn't flash at balls like that. A top innings though!

Agree he was fidgety and the nervous 90"s as well but still think the ball hitting the footmarks contributed to the dismissal.

Watto, lbw. What a surprise!

[JBs-Hawks]

With Voges bowling we shoulda turfed watto and just played SMarsh.

Won't happen with Mark Waugh on the selection panel. Watson is his golden child.


How to bat like Shane Watson

1. Make a start
2. Get out LBW when your team needs you to dig in
3. Waste a review
4. Repeat in the 2nd innings

Agreed. So why did we bowl Warner over Voges in the first innings?  :-[

*crickets chirping* ;)

6/50 not a bad morning, the 122 run head-start will be handy but shouldn't get big heads over it, hopefully can push that out to 450+ over the next ~3-4 sessions and let the bowlers finish it off.

It's innings break man..

[Jay]

Bowlers gotta come out firing here. Pitch just doesn't suit our lefty arm quicks but gotta find a way to keep them under 200.
