Double Trouble

Even being an Aussie, I feel and wish we had the exitement of having the identical and obviously talented "Marshall" twins playing for us....

They at least look the goods, my verdict is still out on "Fleming"

Fleming has turned the corner. He's not out of the woods yet but definitely improving. He has to face Mcgrath first up tomorrow morning! That should be interesting.........

I said he wasn't out of the woods. He pushed at it rather than wait for it. That indicates a lack of confidence.
He will look forward to getting away from McGrath and Gillespie!

vvv, he has the luxury of your Maharoof's and Malinga's and Fernando's and so on....And Vaas is no McGrath, so Fleming can only hope his work flourishes in the Sri Lanka series. By the way, 2 or 3 tests?

It's 2 tests, rescheduled from earlier on following the Tsunami.

Fleming will do OK against Vaas and Co. Vaas is no McGrath and Sri Lanka also don't have a Brett Lee. It's a new challenge for him and he will approach it differently mentally.
Besides, the openers shouldn't be knocked over so quickly and he should be able to go in when the pitch is good and the bowlers are ripe for the picking! No 4 is his position.
Plus, he was in good form until he played Australia. I can't see why he can't regain that now that Australia have gone.
