Is it 100% confirmed that Smith will not bat? One handed attempt? Would make him a more gutsy cricketer than Rick McCosker.

That bowling attack will absolutely murder England. I'm putting at least $100 on Aus winning the Ashes.

Potentially, yes. But fitness and form (espesh Lee and Clark will be a concern). I reckon if Watto can come back and chip in with a few overs this could be a world wrecking pace attack, better than South Africa.

Lol in a situation like this we need a jackhammer like Lee who can blast a few wickets out.

Instead we picked a tree branch like McDonald who basically prods.

Would bring Lee back in without a second thought. Carried the side for nearly two years, deserves more than some Indian tests and a few unlucky tests where his foot was broken before I lose faith in him.

So much knee-jerk re: this attack.

Hilf! (y)

Do believe the fat lady is warming up in the dressing rooms (no, I'm not referring to Smith).

Hilfeh! That one wicket was worth the inclusion!

What a cracker from Hilfenhaus...can't blame Duminy for getting out to that one. Good way to follow up a couple of wides!

Yep.

And only with Lee (firing) and Clark back in the side will Australian attack be better than SA's.

Terrific bouncer from Hilfenhaus. Game...set...almost match. I would prefer it if Hilfenhaus was picking up more wickets with his stock delivery, needs that outswing to become more of a wicket taking threat at this level.
