Anything but pressure bowling is going to play into their hands here. Frustrate them and make it boring and slow. They're too far ahead to risk them getting on the end of anything with pace. 3+ an over and games out of reach very quickly.
 
These two are set now. Bet they both go on and get big hundreds.

Writing this in the hope the opposite will happen and a wicket will fall.[DOUBLEPOST=1385170737][/DOUBLEPOST]Far too wide to Clarke that Tremlett.

agreed. were basically saying we can't get warner out and we're wasting 3 balls per over whilst giving up 3 runs an over minimum, plus given warner a great chance to get himself set for a big score.

useless
 
Swanns getting a seeing to here, hes not spinning it at all when lyon and root are. Very strange
 
First over, not one ball did Cook have to play and he still nearly f***ing gave it away.[DOUBLEPOST=1385190123][/DOUBLEPOST]f***ing flukey bastards, I was just going to post only 3 balls on target in the first 30 balls:evil:

Trott has the brain of a gnat. It's one thing trying to force the issue, but not with 2 fielders set for that exact shot.[DOUBLEPOST=1385191364][/DOUBLEPOST]Mitchell Johnson has managed to bat twice on this pitch without any f***ing bother, yet our established test batsmen have managed to turn into village tailenders on the same strip. Gooch needs to earn his corn and sort this shambles out.. Trott shouldn't be immune to the chop but you know there's little chance of it.

who do we replace him with?
 
f***ing shambolic. When is one of our batsmen going to step up and do something? Been out of form for ages now.

Onions should have been there, another fantasic decision from the 'selectors'
