Against Ashwin in India doing that will just be asking for doom though.

Not raggin the guy because using your feet to spin is a real art, but if he's not picking the length Ashwin will lick his lips every time he gets to the top of his mark.

Yeah, like Renshaw, I don't expect or "need" him to do much in India, it'll be unlike anything he's ever faced before and both of them are still very inexperienced even at FC level.

That's a better shot though.

Just so long as the selectors take the same attitude. We should go realistically expecting to get whitewashed and be pleased with anything better than that.

I could understand if Smith decides not to declare until late and put Pakistan in twice, with the time remaining.

Batting practice. Fill your boots.
Yes absolutely. If he declares with anything less than 650 I'll be very disappointed

Like a guy who is struggling on the flattest of pitches against a tired bowling attack and a captain who has no idea how to set fields in Australia.

Played the quicks really well but struggled against both spinners.
Which is more or less as expected, I suppose? Hopefully he comes out after the break having learned from the Watson/MMarsh school of bashing spinners straight for six when he gets tied down.
