I reckon we'll be slow to start this series. If this test finishes I think we'll lose it handily. Then scrape the series.

Sounds like Faulkner is starting for Aussies, no spinner other than Smith.

Lyon is nothing special- maybe a good decision to ditch him.

Mitchell Johnson is either hoping to take the Merv Hughes mantle or he's taking part in Movember. If he is doing Movember fair play to him.

His bowling is still shite though (winky smiley thing)

Cheeky I know, but does anyone know of any live streams?  Shockingly, it's not on TV in America.

Nah, flat as a pancake this pitch, unless it starts cracking badly this will be a run-fest draw.

Not with a run rate of 2.80 it wont.The Aussies don't like being tied down for long.
