To go back to what Fred was posting earlier about ugly shots (and text book drives), the problem is that most teams have the same text book so they set fields to restrict the 'correct' shot. That's why odd shots that look really awkward have become so common, because that's how you find the gaps.
On the game itself, I think the wicket just has had a big impact because we've got rid of their big players now, a few 4-5 run overs and it'll put a huge amount of pressure on the 'lesser' guys and I can't see them getting the win.
