England have NOT picked Panesar...what a shame and a terrible strategic decison

Andersom, Hoggard and Harmison cannot take 20 wickets if England have to win, and Flintoff cannot carry the entire load of 'good' bowling...

The pitch is dry, no real movement or any surprises, knowing that, Australis has bowled stump-to-stump, good line and lenght, tying down the batsmen, tucking in, not giving free oppurtunities...and hence expecting the batsmen to make mistakes--misjudging the length, line, getting casual..and this is rewarded them

Strauss got a stop delivery...and Cook did not move his feet at all...

In came Bell and Collingwood...and Warne took over...he has bolwed some amazing rippers so far...I mean amazing...the ball is flighted, dipping, pitching of middle and off, spinning and whizzing off the pitch..and of course Bell has no clue...

Whatever Bell has faced so far...he has not played anything confidently..he has misjudged the line, lenght and ofcourse has not been able to read spin...

Couple of balls he left..ohhh so close..and so wrong..Warne kept grinning, holding his chin..staring down, getting in Bell's head...not a good sign...

Further, England look like they are over-protective, over anxious (thinking too much about payback)..only two boundaries in 27 overs...and this could affect their game and their psyche...being too cautious..too defensive could hamper the 'natural' game...

Stuart Claske has bowled extremely well on a very good batting pitch...good line, length...and good pace...

Almost lunch...hope nothing 'stupid' happens...Warne's bowling the last over...
