*Official* Second Test at the Adelaide Oval

Probably a bit too early to say, but this series is not exactly going to a situation I would like to see, being a mostly neutral viewer.

Anyway, I've some silly questions:
-Where is the revolution meter? I really liked it!
-Why is the Adelaide Oval not even half full?
That would be because half of it is still a construction site.

Ways to tell Australia have had a good day: there's a boundary line interview at 5:40pm

Makes sense, given the fact some stands are sold out, whereas others are completely empty. Actually makes my questions really silly. Then again, it's early on my side of the planet.

Do Aus have a mid-on and two short mid-wickets? One a bit forward and one a bit backward when Siddle is bowling to Root? Why is that?

Siddle seriously bowling well here. Get the impression he'll have a decent say later in the match.

He's attacking the stumps, probably trying to get him to play square and bring lbw into play. There's also been a few hold up in the deck, and with the way Root stays on the crease he's a chance not to get to one and chip it to those blokes in close

At least, I think that's the theory

It's taken four years, but maybe some English fans can see what the hype was about re Johnson back in 2009.
