The batsmen are getting all the stick but

Every single Oz first innings has been the same story - get them wobbling at 150-200 for 5 or 6, and then fail to finish them off so they end up with a big score and a morale boost

So the batsmen keep walking out knowing they're under pressure before they've even faced a ball

Bowlers have to take their share of the blame. Margins are fine - I wonder how this would have turned out if Carberry had held that catch?!
