Starc is just an out and out gun. Needs test cricket.

Starc you so fine.
That drop by Wade off the batting of Umar starting to hurt though.
Actually might be possible that Kamran Akmal isn't the worst keeper in this game. How often can you say that??

5 for Starc. Well deserved rewards here for what was an excellent first spell (again).

Can't watch the match but sounds like some good stuff by Tony Starcs. Is the pitch bowling friendly or do our batsmen have their feet nailed to the ground again? Or is it simply good bowling?

There's not much in the pitch at all. A little more bounce than you'd usually expect here but I think a lot of that has been due to Starc really bending his back and getting it through more than the pitch; Johnson and Christian haven't really got much bounce, and there's been no sideways movement.
So a combination of the latter two I guess. Starc has been really good and Pattinson has been okay too but there have been some gifts, especially Christian's wicket.

It's worrying cause it should have been the other way round

Why did Hussey review that? Either extremely poor judgement about when to use DRS or you'd have to say slightly selfish instincts. England's batsmen had the good sense to not review plumb decisions in a far more important match (3rd test, 4th innings v. SA). Hussey should take note.
Beautiful bowling though.
