    Absolutely, without question. You can only assess conditions after two innings. What you can do before that is compare attacks. For me, our attack offers more than theirs.

    One-nil up, two to play.

    But our batting without KP is extremely limited.

    Bowlers win matches, batsmen save them. Our bowlers are better than theirs. That's why we'll win.

  • Bowled out in 34 overs with only 2 batsmen getting to double figures! And Extras was the 3rd highest scorer! Shambles.

    If I was Ponting I'd knock up just over 200, declare and get us back in bat before the end of the day. It could all be over by tomorrow!

    My brother won tickets for Sunday. I did say to him that he might not get to see a full day.

    At last Watson out. Still got his third 50 from 3 Innings against us having never opened at Test level before.

    Hussey's been a poor starter in this series so if we bowl in the right area we could get him cheaply. That is a big "if" though.
