Lucky that the tail made some runs this time.
It looks like the pitch is good now so this could be either good or bad :/

By 'some' did you mean like 90%?

Australian top-order batting is at a very low point atm. The only good ball to take a wicket was the yorker to Watson, other than that, those are bad mistakes for players of Ponting and Clarke's caliber.

Hope the bowlers can do something... (ie. more than 5 wickets per English innings)

They only arrived in SA like 3 days ago... (no prep like Englands 2 weeks in Australia)

But England 5/98! That wasn't expected...

He has come back a different bowler! xD

4 wickets (so far), good effort.

Yep agreed. He just needs to settle in and not make any rash decisions...
