The worst I have seen in a long time. They don't even look like holding a catch. They continually misfield the ball, especially Nasser Hussein. It is actually quite embarressing.

Australia's hasn't been much better(if at all!). Gilchrist's just missed the third chance in the innings at 1/114.

England were shocking! Misfields galore, dropped lollypop catches, disinterest in the field - but today we were just as bad. Gilchrist missed an easy stumping, Martyn dropped a catch when he was half asleep.

i cringed at that stumping chance.... makes the arguments for darren berry earlier this week as his replacement look a whole lot more valid.

and your right about martyn.. i dont think he was concentrating. very poor
