Worth the risk.
No you didn't address anything. I mentioned second new ball, day 1 and 2 of tests and pace friendly wickets. You didn't talk about any of that. So either address it or don't engage with us.
Who the **** is us?
Second new ball goes to the same two new ball bowlers who got it the first time around.
There's a reason no one chooses Miller over Sobers for the first team, the same argument applies here.
You're the same individual who, when I mentioned that Sobers would come on second change, disputed that saying that Warne is more than capable.
Murali came on earlier and had more experience with the new and newer ball than any other spinner.
And least we forget that when I pointed out that Kallis often came on second, if not first change, that you mentioned that it's about the volume, and not the position of entry.
Regardless of who it is, the fifth bowler's main window of operation is the dog overs along with the spinners. This for a bowler who did that most of his damage with the new ball, which I should repeat he's not getting here.
Murali is getting his overs regardless and can bowl all day, so can and did Barnes. With those two, there's no need for a fifth bowler who sacrifices an ATG in the batting line up.
It was asinine.
