Mitchell Johnson unbelievable resurrection is nearly complete.

28 wickets @ 15 a piece.
3 x 5 wicket haul.
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.

England on top at the moment after a good catch by Bell.

The question is who will take the game away from the English...

Bailey?
Haddin?
Johnson?

True. But the shape and concept between the 2 is slightly different. Wonder which one Haddin is actually using?

He was restickering whatever his previous bat was.

Different middle positions.

Also I thought Kookaburra UK and Kookaburra Aus were two separate businesses? A lot like GN (the legends being considerably different). I would have thought the only people benefiting Haddin using the UK branding would be Kookaburra UK or the retailers. Unless Kook Aus are planning on changing to the retro styling.

Kingsgrove Sports are advertising them as 'New from the UK'.  They are also Bubble Legend and Five Star which I understand are the UK models, the Aussie Bubbles are called Bubble II.  I think they will sell well due to the retro stickers.

The ones I seen at Kingsgrove on Monday looked almost identical to each other apart from the stickers

Shock! Woke up this morning to find England have had the better of a day in this test series. Still a bit worried about Haddin still being there. We need as big a lead as possible. With Johnson in the form he is in you always worry he could blow the batting away in the second dig.
How many do England need to win this test match? 300 lead?

I've not seen them next to each other, I'm going off the descriptions of the 2. UK says it has a low middle, Aus says mid to high.
