I doubt a Sydney escape will be one the cards this time, which may be a good thing. This batting order has really needed a good rocket up the arse for a while now.

Didn't he bowl first once against England and they scored like 2/300 for the day?
It's just like Australians almost never enforce the follow on after that Test in India in 2001.
Australian captains are cowards and have been since Mark Taylor.
Here Dara fishy....

Amen. And with a proper swing bowling opening combo of Bollinger and Hilfy (especially), perfect for them. I just don't get what goes through Punter's head as a captain sometimes.

Does Fish Arse (Salman Butt) have any idea of what a first day pitch looks like? Or do his team mates just not care?
