Watto pushing it there, trying for too much.

Starting to swing for him though, so..

BETTER GET OUR SWING BOWLER MJ ON, EH?

Personally, I'd say Lee was much better. Or, better put, would much more prefer him right now. Lee was expensive, but a wicket taker. Johnson has wild swings of being **** and awesome.

Very ordinary shot from Kallis but it was a top first over from Watto. Great advertisement for DRS, too. Haterz can suck it.

I think the last sentence must play a part. Lee definitely was still quite a frustrating bowler throughout many parts of his career. Overall though, if I was forced to pick a bowler I would go for Lee over Johnson, but only just.

I think the most noticeable difference between the two was that Lee always looked like a good bowler when he was taking wickets, and sometimes even he wasn't. Johnson always looks rubbish when he's not taking wickets and sometimes even when he is.

Not that that really makes one better than the other in any way from a previous analysis point of view but it certainly messes with people's perceptions of quality.

Watto can take 9/20 and errone downunder would still think he's a ********.

Liking what he's doing now, though.
