@Jono - Indian batting doesn't fill me with confidence. Playing too many strokes. The Pitch is not docile at all.

has watsons pace come down so much that he's not really effective with reverse tang anymore? seems like forever since he's bowled a dangerous spell with an old ball

Some of Watson's best reverse swing spells were only bowled at ~130km/hr, which contradicted conventional wisdom about the pace you need to bowl to bowl dangerous reverse. I just think his bowling has declined a bit in general with all the injuries and time off.. might come back with time but he'd have to managed to not get injured.

What's really suffered has been his ODI bowling though, to the point of Australia's World Cup balance needing to be tinkered with. It's terrible now.

The one good thing has been India not losing wickets in a cluster (apart from yesterday morning perhaps). Partnerships are key.
