Summary
ENGLAND'S failure to prevent Australia from racking up the runs in Cardiff almost proved their undoing. NASSER HUSSAIN analyses the tourists' centurions and suggests the best way of getting them out at Lord's
SIMON KATICH ENGLAND'S chances of getting him out early partly depend on whether the ball swings. In Cardiff, we saw Jimmy Anderson swing the second new ball and suddenly Katich looked vulnerable, because he is prone to playing across his pads on the leg side, which makes him a prime lbw victim. If the ball doesn't swing, England must bowl outside off stump with two gullies in place as he sometimes squirts it in the air in that area. In fact, 37 per cent of his dismissals over the last three years have been from deliveries outside off stump on a length. Another slight weakness is the way he pulls down to fine leg -- he was caught there against England Lions at Worcester.See the full content of this document
