    Allow me to summarise the shocking decisions thus far.

    Strauss and Bell out on no-balls. Watson not out lbw when score was 5. North out nicking and Clark out "nicking". I make that 3 to 2 in favour of Australia, with the Clark one being the worst, but also the least relevant to the outcome of the match (so far). Or was he going to make a century?!!


    I write this because when you were 4 down I was thinking "Well at least the usual responses to losing the test (if you do) cannot be applied this time". Then came the 2 poor decisions but that still does not even the ledger.

    Bell's was probably not that bad so let's say 2-2 ignoring the 2 Flintoff lbw's to Hilf that were turned down. Anyway, you still may not lose. After all this is England you are playing!
