Harmison and Kaneria on bunny mode.
If either of them are batting with any of the top 9, protect them from strike and put them on 0 aggression.
If any of the top 8 are batting with them, put that batsman on 80% aggression. Do not do this for Chris Swan.
If Harmison and Kaneria find themselves batting together, put it back to normal.

Don't declare the first innings before 750 unless there's been a lot of rain. Declare the second innings whenever appropriate.

Round - 3 v FF

Win toss - Bat

1) S Sriram
2) Murray Goodwin
3) Dravid
4) Lara
5) Ryder [6]
6) McCullum [+]
7) Franklin [5]
8) Yasir Arafat [3]
9) Asif [1]
10) I O'Brien [4]
11) Jerome Taylor [2]

Arafat comes in for Harbhajan because **** spinners. He's also got an FC SR of 41 and an average of 24 with the ball while playing in both Pakistan and England. Another reason is that we're up against a good bowling attack and need that extra bit of lower order resistance.

Bat defensively immediately after a wicket falls for about 10 overs.

No declaration unless setting a target for a 4th innings chase.

Ryder bowls to break partnerships, keep him going if he gets the breakthrough
