I hope we can put up a better showing against the pace men tomorrow. Franklin batted great but he didn't look comfortable against Tait. The only person I can remember dealing to Tait was Hopkins of all people.

The pace men for Aussie also made good use of the bouncer. It is a virtually guaranteed dot ball when bowled at 150kms.

It is only a good delivery when bowled on the right line. We saw a lot of bowlers in our domestic T20 get punished for bowling short because their line was up to ****e. It has to be at the body, give the batsman no room to swing. Johnson is usually our most expensive bowler because he bowls a lot of short stuff but his control isnt as good as the others. Although when used properly, as you said, it is very hard to score off.
