That's a by-product of the crap pitches that have been dished up in Australia for at least a decade, as well as the crap Kookaburra balls that are used (compared to the Dukes in UK, which swing more, last longer and don't ping off the bat like the Kookaburra's do)
Agreed, our batsman are brought up concrete belters. We struggle when it spins as well. Lazy bunch of front foot plodders.

Looks like Nevill/Johnson/Starc/Hazlewood/Lyon are going to have to carry the batting for us, like they did in the 2nd innings at Edgbaston.

So basically, no matter how average England are, we will never beat them in England while our pitches are concrete slabs...
