Mitchell Johnson is the allrounder Australia has always wanted, bowling 140 clicks and batting at number 5 or 6.
Simon Katich is the opener no one ever wanted.
Phabulous Phil Jacques does not like to go out to bat without Hayden.
Ponting and Hussey are sick and tired of opening the batting.
Lord Megachief of gold, also known as Shivnarine Chandrepaul, got so tired lifting his team, he had a nap during a not so short ball from Lee and almost joined Daniel Flynn.
Runako went for one too many.
Put all that in a bowl and what do you get?
A test Australia should still win, but it’s intriguingly poised as you might say.
Plusses for Australia
Can’t fail at the top of the order again this match.
Windies couldn’t get Roy out in the first innings.
Australia are already 136 in front with 6 in hand.
Haddin will be out to finish off Ronchi speculation.
Hodge is used to batting in a side where the top order fails.
Lee & Clark are not going to be easy to get past.
Plusses for Windies
Chandrepaul is still alive.
4/17 is not a bad place to have any side.
Young players like playing with momentum.
Johnson and MacGill are letting a lot of pressure off.
Could be interesting, or Australia could win by 200 hundred runs.www.cricketwithballs.com
