So this is the Ashwin that bowled the first 10-15 overs of the series against England and not the plank that bowled the rest of that series. Looks a different bowler today and very dangerous. Can't see why they picked Harbhajan, sentiment and past glories shouldn't be a valid reason for choosing the side so Ojha should be bowling at the end.

Stop playing back t length balls ffs
It's not playing back that's the problem, though. They're playing back and across the line. It's why Marto did so well on those tours to SL and India years ago; played back all the time but his bat was straight as and he was aiming down the ground even though there was mad turn.

Genuinely thought you were talking about Chris Martin there for a while and wondered if I could have some of the same drugs you're on. Or maybe I'd missed a worthy 0* (19) in his career somewhere....

Well i did say the spinners were dictating things didn't i? :ph34r: and i'm not sure how long Wade lasts against Ashwin either as he's stuggled badly against Narine in the past who has similar variations.

I think the first aim has to be at least 230 for Australia, then push on from there, the track doesn't look pace friendly though so lord knows how the Aus seamers are gonna do.
