You're right. Saying all was wrong. Some!!!
There was rough for him to bowl into. He had a few good overs, then meh. I'm again feeling bad for Sidebottom who got no reward from being the best bowler of the day. Andrerson bowled a handful of good balls and a truck load of rubbish. He ended up with 4 and Sidebottom 1.
I see a comment above 'It's hard to enjoy cricket when your team is getting trampled'. It's about time someone trampled England, they've hardly lost anything in years. Can't be disappointed with that. You win some you lose some. The loss will do them all good. You guys win your fair share. Stick by your side. They put in a good effort and probably still will keep fighting for the rest of the test.
I guess, anything could happen. Though the odds are really up against them.
You are missing Flintoff, I accept that. But Sidebottom has done pretty well. Hoggard is a good bowler, but I really think Sidebottom is better. Tremlett did his job in the 2nd test.
I don't think the England bowlers deserve too much blame. Anderson bowled too many four balls, but Sidebottom just got no luck. Dropped catches. etc. It was defaintly a handy toss to win. I find it quite funny how Botham said before the game, he wouldn;t have minded bowling.
