Well colour me stupid - the selectors (I think) were negative in choosing Bollinger as 12th man - I just don't see why we need a part time bowler/batter at no 8. If you need him to make runs we are already pretty stuffed and I'm a little worried that McDonald wouldn't hold his place if he didn't bowl and bat. I don't think he is good enough at either to warrant his place.
Hughes got his test career off to a terrible start but is guaranteed to see the series out as they didn't bring any extra batsmen with them on tour. At least the first test innings nerves should be behind him
A good fightback by Oz given they were 3 for 40 odd.
