Not at all. If he even showed some humility in his interviews and said "yes, that was a sh*t shot and I shouldn't have played it but my style is to be aggressive" then I could accept him more but when he just comes back and says "that's the way I play" it infuriates me.
If you watch the highlights, just take a look at Strauss' face when Collingwood is out (I think it's that one.) He didn't do a good job of hiding his frustration, that's for sure.
Maybe Swann (average c. 50!) and Tom's God can stick with him and get us to a decent score.
What does everyone think par is here? It currently looks like a 500+ first innings pitch, but getting to 450 right now would be a start....
