    Australia trying to set us something is one thing. Us choosing to go after it is another.

    If we'd been playing the extra batsmen, I think we might have been tempted to at least give it a go. Promote one or two guys up the order, depending on exactly what the target is (most likely KP to open, and maybe Prior into the top four - we'd never be as bold as to promote Broad or Swann that high), but still have enough solid guys in reserve to allow us to shut up shop should we lose a few early wickets.

    But here, without the sixth batsman, losing a few early wickets would open up the chance of us being bowled out if one of the Aussies bowlers (most likely Harris) then has a purple five overs or so.

    What Mrs Jasper does , is listen to TMS on her I-Pad and sync it to the Sky Pictures :)

    Takes a little pausing etc , but it's the best option ! ( in our opinion )

    Why would we let the Aussies get a win before the series in Australia just to try and win 4.0. Like a dog with a bone. What will he say if the Australian's don't declare immediately....are they too afraid to lose to win <whistle>
