The England attack which Australia faced in England was 4 good seamers in good form with no weak links, that creates pressure and makes it easier for all the individual bowlers. That is a similar situation to which Australia have been in during this series. No weak links and 2 all time greats in the bowling attack. Makes it a heck of a lot easier for Lee and Clark to appear better than they actually are. It is questionable if they would have had the same impact were the attack Clark, Lee, Tait and Magill compared to Jones, Flintoff, Harmison, Hoggard and Panesar (all fit and in reasonable form)
