Archer's batting has been a big disappointment this series given he was being touted as a potential allrounder.
Has Harris come back on to the field? If not don't think he can bat until 7, so it's probably Marnus and Warner opening.Right, how many do we think Leach, Archer and Broad can add to the score?
Is getting the lead past 400 important?
In reply Australia will probably lose 2 early wickets, then ML & Smith will bat out most of the day, England will take late wickets to swing the game back in their favour. Smith will still be at the crease.
Not many by the looks of things. Remember when Broad made a test match hundred? He's now #11 :ORight, how many do we think Leach, Archer and Broad can add to the score?

And againBroad twats it for 6
He averages 31 in first class cricket apparently.Archer's batting has been a big disappointment this series given he was being touted as a potential allrounder.
Aye, he has zero foot movement.He averages 31 in first class cricket apparently.
Which is baffling to me.
He looks every inch an old school number 11.
I think Harris will be allowed to open. He might struggle to grip the bat though.Has Harris come back on to the field? If not don't think he can bat until 7, so it's probably Marnus and Warner opening.
Yeah he must have connected with a few big blows because I definitely remember when he came into the England set up people were saying he was really dangerous with the bat.Aye, he has zero foot movement.
I guess he's given it the long handle swing for the stands in the IPL and people have massively overrated his ability.
He didn't do anything useful with the bat at the IPLAye, he has zero foot movement.

He hit a 2nd XI century a few weeks back, but he does look like a no.11. He shouldn’t be batting at 9 atm in any format.Yeah he must have connected with a few big blows because I definitely remember when he came into the England set up people were saying he was really dangerous with the bat.
Across all formats this Summer he's looked terrified every time he's gone out to bat, he has no defence and no movement at all. He should be 11.
I think he's a naturally confident guy and he's probably just blagged his way into batting at 9.He hit a 2nd XI century a few weeks back, but he does look like a no.11. He shouldn’t be batting at 9 atm in any format.
That's pretty brave with Smith still to come in.Australia have no chance at this.
Bar two batsman, they're crap!That's pretty brave with Smith still to come in.
They only need twoBar two batsman, they're crap!
That was brilliant timing from Warne!*Broad runs in*
Shane Warne: 'Excellent start this from Australia. You're worried Nas, you're worried, aren't ya'
*Harris's off-stump cartwheels*
The way he’s bigging up Warner he’s guaranteed to get another rubbish score*Broad runs in*

Should of sent in a night watchman or 2 to protect Warner.
I was gonna say that Warner was his bitch but that works as wellAt this point I think it’s safe to say Broad is Warner’s father
