I still have major concerns about our top order, a tail that is way too long and no quality spinner. I have a horrible feeling these weaknesses will find us out all too often.

Having said all that am I enjoying the moment? You bet I am.
78-6 as I post at all but 5 an over. Yes there are new men at the top but they can't score the runs.The batting line up is still by and large the same that has failed continually and until we find at least 1 opener and a reliable No3 we will continue to fail all too frequently. This lot v the Aussies?
