Whoa. Ausralia made it to 50 w/out the loss of a wicket. If they bat through tmrw, they'll draw to fight another day and maybe get some confidence. But none of the bowlers have been great and i_amtrunks you are absolutely right - Lee and Johnson have no consistency.

Whoa x2! Katich bowled the same number of overs White did. White has to go. I'm a passionate Victorian but he doesn't cut it. If he makes the Aussie team it will be as a one day or 20/20 specialist. His test batting at the moment pales compared to some other more worthy batsman.

It's surprising I understand everything going on in Lee's life but when I think of that, my mind turns to Warne. With his back against the wall, Warne would perform. He would life and b/c of that he made everyone stronger. But I got to stop living in the past.

In the present McGain needs to get fit to be the temporary plug and Australia needs to start blooding a few spinners. I think the batsman are fine. As we've discussed, they've just got to play less favourites.
