If you are playing a shot and the the ball swings and moves as you are about to play then the shot looks bad - conditions have played a huge part in some of the poor looking strokes.

it's absolutely a combination of things, batsmen wanting to get started (or kick on) dry pitch, overcast muggy conditions, some good deliveries as well.
I just think it's a bit harsh to keep calling it as poor shots, the pitch has played a big part.

Broad not being out there is a worry.

This is why I'd like to see Bresnan given a go as an all rounder. with Broad not on the pitch we look very light on bowling.
