Ha, serious? Pretty sure everyone in the team is aware of what they are meant to be doing today.

In situations like this we need a genuine wicket taker, Christian and Doherty are not.


EDIT - Watto is though.

Doherty's bowling creates more wickets than he alone takes though. He's been our best at building pressure in this series, consistently goes for 1/35 or similar.

Haha, we should've known. Watson doesn't score runs ==> Watson takes wickets.

Been quietly impressed with his captaincy, too, although his plans are very much Clarkesque.

The fact is from the moment Forrest came into the side we decided to get too cute with the makeup of our team and since then anybody is batting anywhere and that's where we have been found out a bit.

Someone like Christian is supposed to be a batsman who bowls and chips in with a few wickets which he has done, but obviously if he is asked to bowl at the death like he was the other day then he is gonna look out of depth, same goes with Doherty who has done his job its only been the likes of Harris and Lee who have been disappointing.

EDIT: Watto's picture should be put into the dictionary next to the term golden arm.
