GingerFurball Posted September 10, 2005 Share Posted September 10, 2005 It's half 6 in the morning, and I'm just back from work, so I've not read through the thread much, but does anyone else think that Australia should declare now? In my opinion, it would ask some serious questions of England - in the Trent Bridge test, they batted poorly in the 4th innings in what was a "pressure" situation (I put pressure in inverted commas, since they had 3 and a half sessions to score 129 runs - something they should have achieved a lot easier) - if they're put in to bat then it puts them under pressure to bat well for at least a day to give Australia a score that's defendable. Strauss, Flintoff and at a push Trescothick aside, no-one in the first innings batted at all well when all that was required was to occupy the crease on a good batting track - get the basics right and runs will come - Hayden and Langer both showed this in their innings, and Strauss showed it in his innings. There's every possibility that England could be bowled out cheaply - especially against Warne and McGrath - leaving Australia 3-4 sessions to chase 250-300. It would be a high risk strategy, but with great risk comes great reward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
