Wow - Remarkable job by the tail.
Really looked like we had all the momentum heading into the second innings but the kookaburra has been acting weird of late.
Hopefully conditions are more favourable for the bowlers tomorrow and we can put them under the pump early. Vijay was a very important dismissal. Provided we can dismiss them for under 350 I reckon we can chase it down in half a day with the firepower we have at the top of the order.
Agree with above posters regarding Johnson, his rhythm seems off and rarely threatening the batsmen, even with the short stuff. If this is how ineffective he is bowling at the Gabba, you'd have to worry about his impact at the SCG and MCG which are traditionally slower pitches with less varied bounce. Then again, he's the world's best bowler for a reason, I'd put money on him to play a big role in the remaining tests.
Not sure if Starc's knock with the bat will save his spot without a few more wickets tomorrow. We already have enough passengers (Watson, Haddin, Rogers, S.Marsh) and IMO there isn't room for two left arm quicks in a test XI if neither are swinging the ball.
Proteas dominating Windies as most expected, should be a resounding victory without even needing a second innings. Kiwi's are also making Pakistan look second rate in the ODI's, they might pose a bigger threat than we thought at the CWC.
