Maybe the go slow tactic of the first innings was aimed at burning some of the English lads out... def Wood bowled a lot and was trundling at high 130s by the end.
It’s been our tactic all series to get the overs into the English bowlers
1. To fatigue them
2. Take time out of the game and make England go harder when they bat thereby causing errors as we have seen when they lose clumps of wickets line 6-50 last innings.
IMO the issue with our tactics at time this series is we’ve lacked variety. Too short with our bowling, fields to spread, batting too slow. We’ve lacted variety and intent to get a wicket of put pressure back on Englands bowlers.
Yup, if Warner tons up and we draw or win this test. He gets to chose his exit.
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!
