All 5 wickets to Brett Lee, three of them bowled and one of them was a vicious bumper to Ben Johnson. That's three 5-for's in a row for Lee.

I still don't think it'll knock Bichel off his oerch in the Test team (especially since he took 4 wickets yesterday) but he'd better bowl well!

Thoughts?

Lee is always going to get more chances in the Aus side unless he breaks down completely because age is on his side.

Removing him from the 11 might have been the wake up call that he needed. The message probably got through that the team won't continue to carry him inspite of poor form and he needs to pull up his socks and perform if he has to get back into the national side.

Binga really looks to have hit his straps...

Finishing with 7/114 in the SA 1st inns...

I think he will be in the side...

If Lee is choosen, then he better should perform .He will have a wonderful chance coz he will be playing against a demoralised English side who i don't think will offer much resistance.

Well dont speak to soon Bichel has 3 wkts in 3 overs Vs Tasmania including Ponting.

Who? Nah I'm just kidding!

I think Lee should play, Bichel didn't impress me much in the first test. He got 2 wickets, one of which was Giles who was never out, and the other was Caddick. Lee has more firepower and potential and obviously is in fine form. However if they want to keep Bichel, I really don't mind!
