Have to disagree with your Pieterson assessment. What more can you ask from the man when all his team mates are struggling to get into double figures? He has scored one hundred (151) and three fifties and averaged for the test series over 50. That's a better average than Hayden, Langer and Gilchrist. Only Ponting, Hussey and Clarke had better averages. I'd say that's impressive. Never mind batting no 4 he should be no 3 or opening. He's our only bloody hope !
