Richie's being harsh on McGrath here. He's been great this morning, beaten the bat several times and darting it around off the seam.

BOWLED! What a ball!

And Clarke`s outfielding has been crap.
After his brilliant fielding in the past 4 tests it was just a matter of time before the standard dropped

But in close he`s been brilliant, it`s just his out-fielding that`s been off.

Man Lee has been unlucky this series, this game. Great bowling for 0 wickets.
1 wicket. :p

But, I agree. Both Lee and Flintoff have bowled a lot better than their averages suggest, they've put in brilliant spells and come away with 1 for 20 or something from them, and one or two poor spells have inflated their averages.

Can anyone see Australia actually making a good score for a change? I`m sure we will screw up again, Hayden against the new ball doesn`t seem promising.

Hahah, my bad.

Though I`m sure SP would back me up in saying Jones got himself out.
Well that sort of thing (playing the wrong line and camped on the back foot) happens when someone has only faced 1 ball or whatever. If he'd faced a few overs then I'd say he got himself out.

I think Australia will make about 400.
