Back where it belongs. The WACA lads were lucky the likes of Clarke, Warner, Watson, Haddin, Starc & Bollinger etc were unavailable. Still it needs a better system to decide the winner. The home team will always play for a draw which is very un-Australian.

Peter Moores has been appointed as England's new Head Coach. Again. I think his lack of international experience, both as a player and coach, could be a big disadvantage. Not least because any England player can throw it back at him. Could have been a lot worse though. Ashley Giles could have got the job.

Although with Pieterson gone for good the main source of dressing room anarchy might have been removed.

Future does'nt look good to me. Pieterson gone, Trott teetering on the brink and worst of all Swann having chucked it. Lots of opportunities for good young cricketers. But can they step up this season and perform consistently at Test level?

only time will tell Frankie but better to let them try, than to carry on with things how they were.

For one silly moment there I thought you were referring to West Indian Charlie Griffiths

Just showing my age

Standards around chucking have fallen so much that Charlie Griffiths action would not even be looked at today. The game is much poorer for the lax attitude to an important part of cricket.

Arise Sir Jimmy Anderson the Burnley Lara strikes again (for the first time). Aided by a top innings from Joe Root.

But what was Dhoni thinking about? No strategy or even a basic game plan. Seemed to me he was waiting for something to happen and what a long wait he and his team had.
