The most disappointing dismissal was Elliott. For all the talk of his experience, that was a really awful way to get out, and it surrendered momentum to Australia.
I definitely get the need to rebuild, Elliott and Anderson's innings demanded they do that, but boys, look for some singles. Left and right hand combination and all that. You can't just pat them back down the wicket all day long.
Someone run a change of gloves out, singles boys, singles. Bad ball, put it away, in the meantime get some momentum going between the wickets. They don't seem to have a clear mind IMO because they are hitting fielders ad nauseum.
4 men in the circle, and Santner keeps picking out fielders. The commentators talk this chap up as having a clear head, nothing seems to phase him, blah blah blah... He has a highest score of 48 and hasn't contributed that much with the ball. 3 off 18 is disgraceful.
