Dont see Yuvi getting another go. Dhoni my man you also have to go we need 5 bowlers.
Tait for Hogg in Perth, Tait and Lee taking the new ball.
About the 3rd test:
1. Australia should definitely drop Johnson and bring in Tait. I reckon they're keeping him in the team primarily because some famous cricketer said he was the most talented once in a generation fast bowler they'd seen. Well his results and methods don't back any of that up at the moment and we've given him enough opportunities.
2. Considering the allround qualities and the pitch (if it's the WACA pitch of old which is quick and bouncy or low and slow new) of Symonds and Clarke they should think about replacing Hogg with another quickie, maybe Hilfenhaus maybe Noffke
3. If it weren't for the almost hattrick of Clarke I would say his spot is under pressure despite success against Sri Lanka. I just feel that he feels his spot is secure so he's not got that pressure of success on him. i'm not saying drop him just put more pressure on him.
That is all for the Aussies.
For the Indians however, Jaffer needs to go definitely. Bring on Sehwag. A more borderline decision would be the Dhoni or Karthick (spelling?) argument. Dhoni showed some promise today although has been lacklustre with the bat in three previous innings. Personally I think the latter is a player in the same mould as Jaffer so Dhoni should be given another shot. As for pacemen, well Sharma did well without taking wickets considering his greenness. But Harbajan again might need to make way for another paceman especially if he the pitch doesn't take spin. Finally, Yuvraj problem. Do India have anyone to replace him with (besides Karthick)?
Tait will dominate in my opinion if we select him. My only worry bout him is fatigue, will tait maintain his pace?
I was trying to show my writing skills
That will be a great sight, it would scare the living daylights out of me if I was an Indian opener.

Lee doesn't maintain his pace.
I think the pace now is doing that, Johnson outpaced Lee for most of this match, he just needs to cut out all those wide deliveries.
