James Pattinson ruled out of remaining Tests

Quote:

Australia fast bowler James Pattinson will miss the rest of the Ashes series against England after suffering a stress fracture of the lower back.

"Unfortunately he will not take any further part in this Test series," said Australia team doctor Peter Brukner.
The tourists say they have no immediate plans to call up a replacement, which could mean a recall for Mitchell Starc.

I'm not so sure they'll miss him that much seeing as how Shane Warne and Liz Hurley (she's the one that bowls the bouncers) have been called into the squad.

So the royal baby has been born and it's a boy.

However the Aussies are going to waste another review and see if it's actually out.

That is yet to be seen. Clarke thinks we can. O think he's dreaming.

Pattinson will not be missed greatly as he's been largely ineffective in the last two tests. The batsmen are the problem. I don't think we need wholesale changes to the team but we do need wholesale change in the way we bat. There is little patience being shown at the crease.

There is little patience being shown at the crease and the poms have shown that they are not that good.

Apparently too much T20 down under is being cited as the reason.

Another 8 days before the next test can hardly wait :ping: but it is Manchester so there is about a 75% chance it will rain :o

The Manchester pitch usually responds to spin and we are much better in that department...in fact we are much better in every department :smug:

:har: Well said and so true! The {our?} younger generation seem to think they can do no wrong...:haha:, I hate the DRS; take your pennance and deal with it. If you got yourself close enough to being out that it has to go under the microscope then you obviously famoused up. sometimes you'll get away with it, sometimes you won't, Umpire's call, final.
