Biggest thing in Aus's favour is the possibility of no Fred which as usual throws the side out of whack. If they go the extra bat there'll be nowhere to hide for Broad or Harmison not to mention you've lost your best bowler, if they play Broad at 7 the batting looks paper thin, especially with Bell and Bopara in there. Win today and it doesn't matter.

If North fails now, IMO Watson should move to 6, Hughes coming back in to open again.
I'm all for Watson batting at 6 for Australia, and bowling the few odd overs. Opening, or bowling more than 15 overs per day, if a big no no. Whilst he has performed decently once, I don't think that he is up to it. If he goes on and makes a ton, and a couple more fifties, before this series is out, I still won't be convinced. When he backs it up with consistency after a couple of series, then I will be sold that he is a genuine opening option in the longer form.

Whatever it takes!!!
why didn't any of us think of that before?I feel somewhat diminished after reading the posts in this thread over the last 24 hrs
As a newbie I am curious if Richard and Ikki are indeed the same person ?
Do they argue between themselves
But no, they are not... And while they may hold onto their opinions rather passionately, they are actually pretty nice blokes to talk cricket to. And welcome to the forums, btw..
yeah I know. I moderate on some very parochial automotive sites .
Some people get suspended...... others you know the drill.
Seems there's some Koalas on here
Just taking the p*ss. no intent
A bit like Mitchell Johnsons bowling. Innocuous at best LOL

Cricinfo commentary shtick usually annoys me, but I thought this was pretty funny.

Onions to Clarke, FOUR, oh that's a disgracefully brilliant cover-drive. That's the sort of stroke which'll make all the other cover-drives feel rubbish about themselves. Glorious from Clarke

Incidentally, just realised that Jimmy's cap number on his shirt is what many would consider quite a lucky number in the faith.
