Gillespie v Lee

Dean Jones [BBC web site] is predicting that Gillespie will be dropped for the first time in 80 tests for Australia. I sincerely hope they leave him in, I would be more worried about Lee than Gillespie.

Gillespie has lost about 5mph on his bowling speed and I dont think will toruble the batsmen that much. Lee is skiddy and quicker. We saw in the one dayers that the Australian attack, although good, is one-dimensional and pretty much one speed.

Yes, stupid really, I realised as soon as I posted it that Kasprowizc would not get the nod. Mind you Gillespie looks the least effective of the three. Too many balls off target and not enough short stuff for a big man, maybe he's gone soft [yeah right]
