Need to get Anderson out of the attack. Bowling abysmally at the moment

Anderson needs to go from the attack at the moment, we can't afford to lose all these runs.

This is slipping away from us at a rate of knots. Anderson really needs to get his act together

Yep it is very much so, our bowling attack is not doing it's job. Jimmy should be rested after this game if he doesn't improve dramatically.

Completely unacceptable bowling so far. Anyone with an iota of sense will tell you to pitch the ball up on this pitch. We've completely wasted the new ball so far. Need a miracle from Swann

This game is slipping very quickly. Compare this start to ours, embarrassing.

Our inability to stop the Aussies scoring has been a problem throughout this series. How on earth do we have a team with some many players out of form?

We've pretty much gifted them about 50 of their runs. This pitch is only going to get flatter the more overs we bowl.

Our team with the exception of Bell and possibly Swann is shockingly out of form and consistency. We have players pulling off the odd remarkable display, but then they are rubbish for the next three of four innings.

Our bowlers should get the hairdryer treatment here, it's been absolutely diabolical.

I don't trust Cook to do that though Paul. He's already gone to a defensive field, almost accepting the poor bowling
