Australia and Langar didn't do much homework on Washington Sol Patts and his big hitting mate and paid the price.
Bowlers who can bat are not tailenders and you just can't expect them to roll over like No 11's and hand you their wicket. Ponting seemed to know plenty about them via his IPL coaching but our brains trust didn't have a clue and our bowlers just trundled in without a plan for most of the partnership.
Can still win but we make it hard for ourselves and need to bowl better in the second innings..
