This could be repeat of last year Edgbaston test....  Our bozos collapsed spectacularly against short ball in second inns & squandererd a massive lead. 

This might be smaller chase than that 370 odd...  England can win this

yes. With one bowler down they can't keep bowling short ball

It is still baffling that Indian fast bowlers never tried to bounce out Head, when whole world knew about his weakness.

We were the one who dismissed him with short ball in Australia. Ishant did.

Imagine this generation batsmen facing mighty WI  bowling of 1980s

They benefited from the rules. Not sure they would have the same impact under current rule set. They also overstepped alot.

What rules , they didn’t have to bowl short to get chest height.

 

You get them to bowl now also they will annihilate every team under three days.

Lol Aussies doing the exact same mistake we did at Edgebaston last year. Attacking unnecessarily and handing over the advantage back to England. 

 

But I doubt they'll let England chase down this big a total.

Perhaps but I have heard they cheated alot. Back then there was no limit for bouncer rule and they played against bTsmen who had less protection. Doubt they will have the same impact now.

Tall bouncy bowlers with enough movement can trouble more today's batsmen

WI bowlers were really good and Australia of late 90s and early 2000s with Warne as well
