Haven't seen any of today other than the scores

Are drop in pitches causing to many generic pitches (roads day1,2,3 break up day 4,5 depending on weather)

Would love to see all pitches going back to the days of having there own characteristics

Are the Indians bowling pies? Or is the pitch that good for batters?

Both I think. Radio commentators said there has been no swing and the pace has been down.

Warner also got a little lucky early on.

99% sure the Gabba and SCG are still normal as the afl complains about it, particularly the Gabba.

realistically they should go through the day without losing a wicket

the bowling is diabolical
the pitch is flat
the openers are cashing in

Pitch offering nothing.
Batsman taking a few risks, a rush of blood will be the only way they get a wicket.
Would love the Aussie curators to have the cojones to produce a green top or two

Interesting that now if they picked a World XI that we could and should have 4 players in it.

Smith as No.5 in the world for batting would clearly currently get a cap.
Rhino as No.2 would be taking the new ball with Steyn
Davey currently at 8 will go to 7 after this series and is the only opener in the top ten
Johnno is at 5 but Philander is at 4. If anyone wants to argue for Vernons inclusion then you haven't watched or played much cricket. Mitch was player of the year in World Cricket also.

Tell me. What a batsman want more. To achieve a 100 against a quality bowling attack or against an average bowling attack? Which would mean more to them?
