    "England have bowled poorly. They just look a little bemused.

    It is only the second innings of the first Test and they are mooching about saying 'what are we going to do?"


    Oh Tuffers you are SO wrong!!!

    "It was a terrible delivery. Short and wide. Head had a waft outside off stump."


    YAWN!

    Beautiful blue sky over Brum today, so the weather will not save us, unless it is taking a very long run up.

    All a bit too predictable in the end sadly!

    To think they were 125-8 in the First innings and we manage to lose by 250 runs.

    Archer and Leach to come in for Anderson/Ali maybe?

    Does Baistow need to be dropped..

    I suppose the key is getting Smith out cheaply but even then we let them get a good few runs yesterday once he was out.

    Loard's next - and the Aussies like playing there.
