Its one thing being an attacking captain vs Ind WI and NZ. And another vs a side as good as yours like Eng/SA. Clarke's so-called-attacking-mindset would surely be tested this series !!

No slips already LOL
I can see you are here for the long haul.

A Pete Siddle caught and bowled being amongst the Classic Catches options just makes it hurt so much more. ****s.

Back to his Ashes best is Hilf. WAC. Give him a cheer for his 100th innocuous outswinger of the day.

still, basically loving half the south african team, inc. the two at the crease, makes this fairly tolerable

I still don't think we've bowled that bad. Just that no-ball and dropped catch has hurt us. It would be handy if Lyon could keep it tight.

yeah it's a bit of a concern. Because, really, Siddle's best quality is the whole runs in hard, all day/everyday thing, but if he isn't even bowling quickly it's like so what? Anyone can run in all day and bowl 130ks. He also generally seems to just get move movement off the deck when he is bowling quickly, and little to nothing when he isn't. Like, honestly, if he is going to continue to bowl low 130's we might as well just bring in someone who can do it better than him.
