    Slow session for scoring. Poms digging in for some flat deck action after lunch

    154 first class matches with an average in the mid 30s is enough to get you a game for England these days apparently.

    Should members of the most conservative state (42% no) in Australia really be making fun of other states? 😉

    Good innings, but that was a terrible run from Vince.

    Ridiculous. They shouldn't be any more than honest county battlers. Is English cricket really that weak?

    Good day for Australia really. Bowling first on a slow road, they restrict the scoring to a 1986-esque 196, and take 4 wickets, including England's best player for not very much.

    I'm sure if you have a dog in this fight, you're enthralled by this gritty test cricket, where every run and wicket has to be earned.

    But as a neutral who just wants to be entertained, fucking get on with it!!

    Bring back Trevor Franklin.

    Missed about 12 overs due to rain and shitty Queensland in general tho. Poms probably could have reached 230-250.

    @nta given the run rate for the rest of the innings, that seems unlikely.

    @mariner4life which is a good point - even Ali, who is a tonker, has slowed himself down.

    Not enough short balls from what I saw.
