A smaller athletic bloke generates pace through his run up (Gough, Akhtar), a bigger fella is more about the initial bound into his delivery stride (Harmison, Finn).

More pest from the West really, shame he didn't go to Israel where he could have been the tw@ in Eilat.

Goughy, athletic ?

Swann out for the series with his elbow injury, so Panesar comes in for him.

Panesar has come on leaps and bounds in the last couple of years so it probably won't matter so much on these seamers wickets, but I think England could miss Swann's little cameo's with the bat. He fairly regularly hits a quick 25 or 30 runs and gives England's tail some momentum.

Dammit,i see you're in Australia not NZ.I was going to ask you to do something about the feckin bad light currently delaying the test match.

BTW,what time is it in Gabba land ATM? Just curious as to why the test is starting so early-can't ever recall ever being able to watch a test match from NZ in waking hours over here,they used to go right through the night.

The light is always bad in Dunedin on account of the persistent year round drizzle.
Its 11am, sunny and warm in Brisbane currently.

11 hours difference now Greeny.
