Coming in late here, probably already been discussed but that cricket from
The 2nd over on the first day when boundary riders were sent out was as weak and timid as I have ever seen from an Australian team, Warney would be turning in his grave seeing that. Especially after saying all year “let’s see you do it against our bowlers”

I can live with the defensive fields when the pitch was a flat as it was on day 1. Batters are too good these days when it comes to playing "unorthodox" shots because of all the white ball cricket they play. So why have an ego and let them pick you off at 4-8 and over on a road. Cut off the boundaries and maybe make them take bigger risks to push the scoring if that's what they are determined to do. I did think we bowled too straight though early and I wasn't a fan of leaving the field back for the new batsman and letting them pick off an easy single to get off the mark. Anyway the end justifies the means, so if we win then no big deal. If we lose then it's something to consider next test.
Lords is generally a results type of pitch so expect a little bit more in it for the bowlers. Will be a different type of test to this one I expect

Did well Boland, not sure how long he will last in the morning though.
Tight match, rain expected tomorrow morning up until lunch, cloudy day tomorrow also, a dud duke ball that doesn’t hoop around would be good for the chances tomorrow.

All 3 outcomes still on the table going into the last day. Sign of a good test match between two evenly matched sides. Hopefully the weather doesn't rob us of a possible result
If Ussie and Travball get going again like the first dig then we are a big show.

98 to go
5 wickets left.
Been hearing a lot about how aust has the numbers 1,2,and 3 ranked batsmen in the wooooorld.
A pity they got 66 in the first innings and 35 in the second. (&%$%#$$!!!!
Guys it's ok to be seen and not just heard!
Ali's finger is going, a pity in the session before to Green and Khawaja didn't get a tad more aggressive with some bad deliveries....but I'll happy if the grind continues.
20 overs or so until the new ball - which Ponting says the new one is easier to bat with than thie older duke.
It's going to be close! (I think)

Carey starting to play a few loose shots now, Cummins having a crack now also, great to see some attacking mindset even if the POMs get up.
New ball 17 overs left 54 to get, 3 wickets left.
Now Root gets Caret caught and bowled.

I did not think Aust were going to pluck that one outta the air!

Ponting seemed to be right, saying that Aust wouldn't mind the new duke ball as it won't swing or do much of anything.
thank goodness I don't have to hear about "2005" for a week or so.

Great to see a tight game fall our way, the one I remember was McDermott and I think Tim May against the Windies at the Adelaide oval, trying to break the dominance they had on us only to get done with a couple of runs to go..

A victory for test cricket - I’m glad my neighbour (lovely fellow but a pain in the arse Pom) went silent. Will be sure to give him a friendly wave in about 1.5 hours when we head off to work
Hope that shuts the snarks up about Cummins captaincy until at least the second session of the next test
Bazball failed in its first real test, on a wicket manufactured for it
