    That's usually enough, to be fair.

    By the way, I fully anticipate all this 'momentum' guff about Australia still carrying the psychological scar of Headingley turning out to be total balls and for them to come out swinging.

    Smith and their South African will give them a much stronger batting line up. Who will open for us, Burns and AN Other?

    Is it wrong for me to be looking forward to Archer putting a few more under Smith's chin?

    Not at all. Archer hitting people is highly entertaining. Although if Archer's clever, the first ball he bowls him will be a straight, slower ball yorker.

    Denly, isn't it? Because apparently fluking your way to a streaky 50 is sufficient qualification to open the batting for England now.

    No other fecker can do the job so why not?

    No-one else in the squad can, certainly. I suppose the question is whether someone currently outside the squad would be any better?

    Least he did it against a red ball, B. Previous incumbent got the job because of some exceptional slogging against the white.

    Whoever moved the CCC to the start and end of the season so there are no cabs revving on the ranks mid-test series really needs to ge taken out and shot.

    The fact is that the obsession with winning the World Cup has had a deleterious effect on our test team.
