People have forgotten how to play the forward defence.

Raise the bat Davey....double figures.

.....and gone.

Series average - 9.5

How can you keep making the same mistake over and over again?

2 for SFA every innings and we still don’t make a change at the top of the order...

Needed a right hander up there vs Broad.

Warner needs to be reinvented to bat at 5 or 6.

Warner has come back the polar opposite to Smith

Can’t face the new ball or Broad, they need to get him away from the new ball now.

Had a great World Cup but the white ball is tame compared to the Duke ball. He’ll have to earn his spot for this summer but I think his test touring days are over.

Shot!!

Did make plenty of runs in the WC on friendly pitches but scored at a much slower rate and failed when it mattered in the SF.

I really hoped he would try something different this innings, especially to Broad. Maybe walk down the pitch a bit, try and break up his length, something. He could hardly have done worse.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Gotta love watching Smith bat, would be an utter nightmare to bowl to.

He's never been any good with moving ball .
He loves our flat track wickets in Aussie land .

I watched Warner between balls and he looked like he was hyperventilating. He should have a brown paper bag in his pocket.

Was thinking the same, Smith manipulates where he wants the bowler to bowl.

Warner is being dictated to every innings and doesn’t make any adjustment, he should of been getting outside off stump more and made them bowl straighter to him into a scoring zone and left things alone around off stump more.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Very nice piece of cricket there Poms.

 

[Robbo's my hero]

I hope Labuschagne learns his lesson and never does that again!

 

[Dadda Dave]

Looks like the soap dodgers are well on top now..

 

[Blues_1864]

Ah well. Not sure Smith will have time for 100 today.

 

[Robbo's my hero]

All I want to see is resistance. Not capitulation.

 

[Dadda Dave]

We need Mike Hussey to come in next to steady the ship.

Alex Carey has the potential to impact like Hussey, looks like he could develop into the busy cricketer we need in the middle order.

 

[Blues_1864]

Not sure what Wade was thinking about, last over before lunch... he's still there, I guess that's all that matters.

 

[Robbo's my hero]

Tuffers is nuffers.
