Gee imagine if they weren't all flat tracks like some of the more knowledgeable chaps on here are suggesting, wonder what his average would be then.

Not flat tracks, but they've been good cricket wickets. Certainly not raging green tops!

Having a look at the two online they do look very similar, but there is some difference.

How many do England need to win this test match? 300 lead?
[/quote

England need at least 500 lead. Tomorrow will be day 3 when tracks tend to be at there best . I'm we get blown away and leave them 300 odd I would fancy Aus. 500 realisticly leaves them no chance .

Anything over 400 will be nice.The Aussies have had a bad day but they aren't out of this match yet far from it.

400 lead would mean we'd need to stumble over 300 ish (assuming we get haddin or lyon quickly). Given previous on this series we'd do well to get that

would be nice to be able to get to 300 odd in our second dig and put them under some real pressure for the first time this series.

He gives it big in the field needs to back it up with his ability

Borrowed time he is on till one of the young bucks makes the breakthrough like Maddinson

Fair enough! Just wasn't sure.
Marcus North is who I'd bring in. Experienced, in form and a spin option

To be fair he gets as good as he gives though especially from Anderson who is hardly backing it up this ashes series with only 10 wickets @ 46 including the 3 wickets from this innings
