this is a much better wicket and unlike Edgebaston, won't have as much uneaven bounce on days 4 and 5. At Old Trafford it turns more rather than crumbles and Giles aint a spinner who can rip through a batting line-up like Australia's
We will see I fear you may be right, but its always hard to tell until both sides have batted, If they get to todays close with more than 150 runs and less than 2 wickets down we can start worrying then.
we will indeed If we get 4 or 5 wickets before the end of play then I'll be a lot more confident. The situation with Michael Clarke could be interesting. If he's not up to batting then that helps us quite a lot.
