Interesting. We'll be aiming for 200 plus and then we're in a great position. If we'd have let them follow on I reckon they may have got 400 + and then we'd have struggled to get the target so I think it makes sense.

KPs ripping off-breaks on a day 5 pitch should see for this lot of Aussies.

One of the Times correspondents is thinking we need to get 350 over 3 sessions and then bowl them out in 5. Sounds plausible, as long as the rain is not too prolonged tomorrow.

Agree there. And we're flying already. 43-0 after nearly 9.

with better conditions today the batting will be easier.
I reckon that must be the reason they're batting again, can't think of any other reason. Kind of makes sense I guess if the conditions are a lot worse tomorrow, just hope it doesn't come back to haunt them again.

And what really topped it off was the crowd giving him the bird every time it was replayed on the big screen.

Seems to be swinging apparently. We've slowed up a little bit. Maybe batting again was the wrong choice? Who knows?

And sure enough, the last ball of his over goes for four.
