England 513 all out. Trott left high and dry on 168. That'll be an early lunch with under ten minutes to go. TMS's post-Frindall Safa reckons it's the second biggest first innings lead we've had in Ashes history. Nice!
What an absolute fool Mr Watson is. That could well be curtains for Hughes' international career, particularly if the Aussies look for wholesale changes in light of an embarassing Ashes series. Not good.
Presumably he means that if their bowlers can skittle ours easily there must be enough in the pitch for the likes of Anderson, Tremlett and Swann to have a go at.
Correct.
Swann did a great job, just kept it really tight at one end and allowed Strauss to rotate the seamers. Really pleased to see Bresnan bowling so well! Saker seems to have got the tactics on this wicket spot on!
Credit to Flower too, the plans have worked to their batsmen and he has assembled a great backroom team. Ashes almost retained but would still like to win the series, Swann could be the go to man in Sydney,
