    What else did you expect him to do? Leave it? He's always going to try and hit those balls, I don't get how it's a stupid shot. Trying to get it off the hip and simply didn't come off. Oh well, move on.

    Having missed the opening session one thing that surprised me when i woke up was the lack of runs scored.Did we bowl well or was it poor batting by the Aussies?

    Good tight bowling for the most part. Not hugely threatening for a lot of it but tight. Broad was good at that. Anderson's second spell was excellent.

    who's going to make the violins?

    First five overs were pretty ordinary, but after that they were very disciplined. Got slowly better as the session went on.

    Yeah well I'm pissed off at the moment, so logic doesn't really prevail. Still played it badly though.

    Nothing on hotspot. I'd stick with the decision. Not out. Noise was when it had passed the bat
