We thought we were not the best in finishing off the tail. There is someone who has lost lot of matches due to tail resistance. Some times tail managed to earn draws as well Zak/Bhajji once. Panesar/Anderson once. RED BOX means Australia lost in that match

they allowed monty and anderson to play for more than an hour and save a test match.I think they lack a top quality spinner who can just run through the tail.

It is a lesson for everyone. These days lot of tailenders have started batting well. Teams cannot afford to relax anymore after getting through the top and middle order.

I think Brett Lee missed a good number of those highlighted matches. He was quite lethal when it comes to cleaning up the tail.

Not the Indian ones - Harbhajan, Kumble, Zak all scored plenty of runs against him in the two Aus series last year.
