Mind you that could change in two tests. It all depends on how the batsmen either side of him fare (Watson, Katich and Clarke), as really they are the only ones remotely capable of stepping into that role (and I'd hesitate putting Katich in there due to his age)

Clarke averages 19 at 4 compared to his average of 56 at 5. I don't have too many problems with him being given another run at 4 as he is now but calls for him to bat 3 definitely lack sound logic IMO.

Well then so should whoever we bring in. Why mess with a good thing?
