    *Official* Fifth Test at the SCG

    The gulf between Aus and SA batting is really not very much now imo. There's plenty of holes in both (especially with Kallis retired), and as someone else said, this will likely be a bowler shoot-out. Both sides with the ability to destroy the batting line up.

    *Official* Fifth Test at the SCG

    Well have to agree to disagree, I think Johnson's highs, because of the varied attributes of his bowling when he is on song (incredibly quick, left-arm, very late swing, nigh unplayable short balls etc.) make him about as difficult a bowler to face as anyone in cricket. Have seen Harris bowl...

    *Official* Fifth Test at the SCG

    As Burgey said, so much depends on whether Johnson continues in the same vein as this series. If Johnson reverts back to a lower level then the SA attack is better than ours imo (Siddle was pretty innocuous last time he bowled in SA too). And despite his remarkable consistency this series it is...

    ***Official*** Australia in South Africa 2013/14

    A form slump like that could well be just because he doesn't have the same motivation (because he knows he has no chance anymore of ever being picked in the test side). If he was suddenly given a heads up that he was first in the pecking order, he could well lift his game to what it has been in...

    ***Official*** Australia in South Africa 2013/14

    Irrespective of his weaknesses, with a record like that, Dussey has to have some pretty valuable general qualities as a batsmen - e.g. he can score runs consistently, has an ability to convert runs into big scores etc. The problem is if he has some fairly glaring weaknesses in his game not...

    *Official* Fifth Test at the SCG

    Johnson's figures since his return: 4/61, 5/42, 7/40, 1/73, 2/62, 4/78, 5/63, 3/25, 3/33, 3/33* Fair to say that's a pretty good effort

    *Official* Fifth Test at the SCG

    amazing how consistent our batsmen have been this series. Every one of out top 7 averaging around 40 or more, bar Bailey, who, let's face it, was always going to be a ****ty selection. A real team effort that.

    god damn...if only Johnson could have bowled like this for the majority of his career...could have been one the greatest ever.
