the aussies saw the end near, and pressed on. i didnt see them batting for two days, because that would have been their intention had there been an extra day. they've been crumbling under pressure lately, and this wasnt any different.

i only recall one win on the whole tour thus far, so their performance under pressure in concerning. the consistency that we once called upon on a him has eluded us, and our bowling has been intermittant at best. i do believe we are missing a specaliast swing bowling like the likes of damian fleming and a consistant fast bowler..and heck, throw in a consistant spin bowler.

currently we're paying the price for having our team grow old. our problem is that we had too much depth that the younger players never had a chance to make it into the bigtime until they were in their late twenties, which now sadly has shown its ugly head.
