Patty should just declare now so we can get the rest of their wickets out of the way by lunch tomorrow
Could be a fair bit of rain over the next two days. We need to ensure we make enough runs to bat just the once...400 should do it!

Very much an armchair sports fan though I did join a cricket club when I was in Australia. I'll watch the F1 this weekend for one the first times this season, it looks like an exciting finish.
Without getting into the debate on whether it's a sport, I'm watching the World Chess Championships atm.

Of course Chess is a sport. Should be in the Olympics along with Backgammon and Bridge.. I do draw the line at Cryptic Crosswords.

What a pearler of a delivery!!
First ball, pitched up, swinging into middle and leg.
I thought the pommy bastard had dispatched it to the boundary...but wait...YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSS GOT 'IMMMMM.
The vein on Starcs neck looked like the boundary rope....pumped!
Whattaday Ritchie!
first ball duck
fist gloved catch
first wicket cam green

If La Nina was a Pom she'd be asking...
...after Captain Cummins pants half the eleven.

Meh, we’ll both have crap days. As long as it don’t end up with a whitewash either way, we deserve a good series.
No!

Still a bit nervous about the new ball tomorrow. No Anderson or Broad, but in those conditions, I don't think we should take Robinson, Woakes and Wood lightly.
If we're 2 for 300 by stumps tomorrow, I'll delete this post, and deny I ever said anything

Just read that England opener Rory Burns now has an unwanted record - the most Test ducks by a Test opener in a calendar year. He now has 6, with up to 5 innings remaining in 2021. Hopefully his tally increases by at least another couple by the end of the Melbourne Test .

Dropped Warner on 48 too, I'm sure he's really enjoying his series so far.Just read that England opener Rory Burns now has an unwanted record - the most Test ducks by a Test opener in a calendar year.

The way he's going, he might actually gain votes in the Border Medal as our best player
