I know they are 250-3, but surely at the start of a new day on a rain refreshed pitch you have to back your bowlers with more that 1 slip and a gully. If early wickets aren't taken they will cruise to 500. Surely you give the bowlers half a session, or even half an hour to attack and see what they can do with the fresh start. The main reason I didn't want McCullum to be captain is that in the past when he was captain he has actually been to [b] defensive [/b] with his field placings, and Taylor much more consistently aggressive. Further evidence provided today.
As I type this, Boult has just bowled Peterson. Hopefully this spurs McCullum into attacking.
NB: I also like Shane Bonds brutal realism in his assessment of yesterdays play (effectively pitch was fine, SA was good, we were shit), combined with a hopeful optimism of answering 'where to from here' with ' bowl them out for 350, score 500 and defend 200!
Edit: Nope, still one slip, one gully. Aggressive (reckless) when its innapropriate, defensive when we need to attack.
