Pitch has already been tailored to suit Harmison and Freddie according to this report.

If it continues to harden up, as Peter Marron, our head groundsman, expects, it will have pace and bounce. People expecting it to turn square on day one can just forget it. Historically, you would pick another spinner here - but if this wicket carries on as it has been I would go with a pace attack.
Looks like the Aussies have a difficult choice to make on whether to go for the extra spinner or not, and if Lee is ruled out...
