That is probably why they aren't taking it yet, take it after tea when Anderson and Tremlett who have bowled a lot will have had an extra 20 minutes and be a bit fresher.
That's a problem he could have avoided by giving them breaks and bowling Swann more throughout the day.

Bizarre captaincy.

State Captain
Why aren't they taking new rock?

What's the point of waiting?
think theyre scared of conceding too many runs- runs are trickling slowly now but theyre taking wickets every few overs. theyre scared theyll give away another 20-40 i reckon

too defensive but good for us if we play sensibly

Good session for us but we really could have done with Swann holding that chance.

If Australia bat another ten overs they could put it beyond us. Crunch time after tea.

Great match.

Honestly for all the mistakes the Aussie selectors have made, showing faith in Hussey redeems it all. Such a huge series for him.

Given Ponting's captaincy cops so much flak (and rightly so), think it's only fair Strauss gets an honorable mention for some strange tactics after his efforts so far today.

Siddle really is the perfect tailender in this situation. Rock solid defence and keeps his head... mostly.

He'll know how to bat with Hussey as well.
