Will be interesting to see how England bat
Really since Waugh's era Austral have insisted on endless aggression, and just going about playing the way they do regardless of conditions - that's all well and good when you have one of the greatest teams ever assembled... but you don't now
There was no reason to be bowled out that quickly - leaving, discipline, good technique - all seem things foreign to them.
But confidence will be restored when they can swing merrily through the line on their return to Straya... Just hope when they come to NZ we too produce greenish (traditional NZ) pitches
There's no doubt that the roads Australia produce in home conditions affect them overseas.
Be it this Ashes series or that equally disastrous mauling vs Pakistan a year ago; the Aussie flat track bullies, led by Smith, can't bat in adverse conditions.
I mean Smith's technique is diabolical and he'll always get eaten up by movement or swing. But because he scores runs on dead pitches they revere him as Don the 2nd.
Warner is even worse. A brute at home but a mug in most overseas conditions.
Truth is they read too much of their own press that perennially anoints their batsmen as the world's best.
