Hmm. High?

Am I the only person who thinks Australia has a good attack?

They got pasted in the Ashes true, but even then there were some good performances.

I think it's somewhere in between what you've said and the over-critical bunch that are used to watching McGrath, Warne, Lee, Gillespie, etc. Harris is very good for me, and Siddle can do a job also, think MJ's position should be under real scrutiny, while the spinner's slot is still anyone's guess. Watson is a decent enough fifth-bowling option too.

I don't think they're a million miles off having an effective attack.

Yeah, they were all in the same test. We were horribly inconsistent in The Ashes, bowled both sides of the wicket and couldn't settle on a length. Our attack will be good again when they work out that bowling in and around off-stump for a decent length of time is a smart thing to do.

 

[Spikey]

Bull. They didn't step up in the Ashes. That's it.

It's going to happen.

What a GUN review.....

I told you we should have opened with him! Bring Hussey on!

 

[Spark]

Watto might have his name expunged from the Hall Of Shame title at this rate

 

[Spikey]

nah giving it to haddin tbh.

 

[uvelocity]

Watto

gonna **** up someones when he gets runs he gets wickets graph tbh

 

[Woodster]

Well, excellent review. Didn't think it looked that good in real time. Watson has an immediate impact. Gutted Amla's gone!

 

[NUFAN]

WATTO! Great review.

Woodster, you just mentioned Lee. Do you consider Lee to have been a better Test bowler compared to Johnson? I think they are very similar.

 

[Top_Cat]

heh, Amla. Manages to do ****-all against OZ again.

 

[Ruckus]

Heres an idea:

Khawaja to open, Watson to replace Johnson as a strike bowler and bat way down the order. Ingenious or crazy stupid ****? Probably the latter, but oh well.

If the selectors thought Watto could play as a frontline bowler they'd probably just drop Siddle for Smith.

Wow, what's gone on there?
