depends who's in, if it's a Bell or a Strauss then yeah, but if it's Colly and Prior or KP and Prior coming in tomorrow I see us losing 3/4 wickets in the opening session because of the way they play(and Colly's form is appalling).
Yeah u could be right but KP and Prior score quickly and every run u get the more you are making it harder for the ausies to win

yeah but that also means less time at the crease when they get themselves out for 30/40.waspish said:JoeMercer'sWay said:depends who's in, if it's a Bell or a Strauss then yeah, but if it's Colly and Prior or KP and Prior coming in tomorrow I see us losing 3/4 wickets in the opening session because of the way they play(and Colly's form is appalling).

Least if it's strauss, cook or bell you know their strike rate will only be 40/50 ish so you're eating up time for the same number of runs.
If KP turns round and smacks 150 I'll be delighted and we'll be fine, he just hasn't done it for a while.

Wicket is completely flat now
Would be interesting with a spinner on tho those cracks are huge and loads of rough to bowl at left handers
