LOL! I reckon I called it about 50-50. Won one lost one. But Down Under old Mitch bowled like he did in his younger days. Sprinted in and bowled at devastating pace. Most of the English batsmen failed to realise that the Aussies are at their most threataning when their backs are to the wall. Somebody had to take Mitch on and break his confidence. Nobody even tried and the rest was history. Pathetic from an English viewpoint.

IMO Mitch had nothing to lose, sprint in and bowl quick. If the radar was switched on then it could all go his way. If the radar wasnt working then he would have just bowled the usual wayward shite which was quite common at that point in his career.

Baz you forgot Brad Hadden who's career was well over IMO. What a pain in the English arse he turned out to be.

But not to worry England have now turned a corner. Sort of. Perhaps. Well maybe.
