I think they were right to go for Freddie and the Hoggster to open the bowling. They only had a maximum 10 overs and you've got to have Hoggy bowling as he's always most effective right at the start of an innings. And Freddie was far and away the best English bowler in the last test. But if it doesn't swing in the morning Harmison should come on for Hoggard fairly soon. Harmy might have a real part to play in this test if the bounce is variable later on - with his pace as long as he can get some accuracy.
