    Yep, just enough nibble both ways. I think Hazlewood would like these conditions

      He will get his chance in 15 minutes at this rate.

        Only 10 minutes to go.

          187 in the 3rd test Manchester.

          Those are just the best three.

            Watto & Hadds must be the only Aussies anywhere in the world liking this.
            I'm sure they aren't.

              Perhaps not liking the result, but a silver lining of a slither of hope that their personal careers aren't finished.

                I'm confident they're thanking their lucky stars they're not having to deal with it to be honest.

                More and more test cricket is about who wins the toss. Most teams only have one or two bats that can keep their heads from time to time, and if a pitch is somewhat adverse to those not prone to playing patient and technical cricket it's a turkey shoot.
                TF is this?.........Obviously you're not a golfer.

                  Poor batting as well though . If Australian cricket is serious we need to get our players playing in seaming conditions .
                  This isn't a huge shock, and with IPL and other riches , players don't play country cricket .

                    Let's see how England cope in five minutes or so.

                      They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                        We have batted awfully today, but our bowlers haven't been much chop either. Too many four balls.

                        this Aussie team really is bi-polar -gameover by Friday

                          Funny how the Aussies past honed their craft playing county cricket, but now they board the IPL gravy train.
                          It's no great shock they can't play in conditions they're not familiar with.
                          If you're going to be well remunerated, then learn to perform in foreign conditions .

                            Rogers plays County cricket. Has more first class centuries in First Class cricket than any other Australian than Don Bradman. He got some runs.

                              Well Australia win the Toss and batted and England batted on the same day, can't blame conditions both sides batted in it.
