Straussy made the decision based on the weather... today was perfect batting conditions and tomorrow is forecast to be overcast. Time will tell if a brilliant decison, or another example of over conservative tactics.
I've added new quote to my signature, and am tempted to temporarily use a photo of the Doctor as my avatar!
Last week aftr day 4 people were talking about a 5-0 defeat, about England fcing humiliation... the Aussies know now they are in a fight, a really tough fight... and the weakness in their team is the one I suspected of it right from the start, they just dont have the bowling attack that they did a few years ago.
I hope English fans dont get carried away... Punter is one of the batsmen of his generation, and Clarke and Hussey are great players - this is still a batting line up to fear, but I dont reckon your boys are talking about 4-0 right now.
