The real reason why Johnson was recalled to the team was to strengthen Australia's batting

Australia should just flip their batting order around for the second innings

Poms will make 450+ on this pitch and they will be practicing their golf swing on Sunday afternoon.

Wallabies at least show signs of potential

England will put up 500+ here. Potentially reach 600+.

Strauss, Cook, Trott, Pieterson, Bell, Collingwood and Prior are all in form. Aussie bowlers are shit and not test match worthy.

I can't see how Australia's pace attack is going to get 10 wickets. I honestly can't.

If England had this series sealed and were 2-0 up, they would bat to try and get 1000 runs this innings. That's what they will do in Melbourne. They won't bother about declaring, they will absolutely pump Australia's shit bowlers.

I mean, you have the Ashes sealed, you may as well make it embarassing. Winning the series 2-0, 3-0 or 4-0 isn't embarassing. Winning the series and putting up over 800 runs - perhaps 1000 is embarassing.

Could u imagine if Bolar was the Poms captain?

England would bat for 4 days........

IMO England will be intent on winning the series as convincingly as possible. Stuff trying to set a scoring record, a 3 or 4-nil series result will be their aim. 

They'll be hell bent on doing to Australia what Australia did to them over the last two decades

If we win this test and bat first in Melbourne, yes, I would bat 3 days.

Could you imagine how demoralising that would be for the bowlers. You would be set for the one day series too.

Good point but Hayden was ripping it up in Shield cricket and it was only a matter of time before that translated into something in Test cricket.

I know we are not in the same class anymore but look at what SA did to the Indians 9/136 in 40 overs. That is not even 2 sessions
