Copeland is more likely to getting outside edges while Watson is more likely to get lbws.
Ok I'm going to clear this up for you.

Watson is faster than Copeland, so standing outside of the crease to him becomes harder.

Watson has a better bouncer than Copeland, and more likely to use it.

The edges would invariably not carry to Haddin off Copeland.

Copeland is more accurate than Watson.


All those reasons and more.

If SL hadn't been so gutless in the first innings this would be a heck of a game. Just got to feel that once the new ball comes Mathews is going to go. If not sooner.

Except the bouncer reasoning, others are not.

1. Haddin has stood up to Watson before. His pace is not that difficult.

3. That's a stupid reason. How would you know? Some might and some not. Better than getting rid of outside edge dismissal completely.

4. Watson can bowl stump to stump when the keeper is up.

Horrible posting. Can you give yourself a 10minute timeout of this thread please?

Dear God, had Sanath been on this forum he'd been banned in minutes.

Can understand his lack of expertise in English, but why parade it? Surely the broadcasters can get better speakers of english if they are transmitting in that language?
