The bowlers would have had an extra session of bowling, meaning they'd probably be all out by now. Madness, and Boof and Clarke should know better.
That said, hopefully the sun will emerge soon and we can get on with it.
U want to give the bowlers a rest, with the perth test starting friday, u dont want to burn them out, especially Harris who is known to break down to easily.
Good call by Clarke, I would hate being the ones chasing a total on day 5.
A must say, after all the abuse given to Root, he was the only Pom to show true grit and fight back. Even for a little girl looking pom, he has massive balls to stick it and courage to take a few body shots from johnson and harris.
He deserved 100
the rest of the pom batsmen apart from Bell, havent shown any courage from the short stuff.
Oh and Broad is becoming even a bigger twat, if thats at all possible!
