@Damo I’m not impressed being 6 down for only 200ish but maybe that just because I’m used to the BC racking up big scores.
Well I'm looking at a wide angle shot of the block and I can't tell which is the pitch and which are the pitches to be used next week.

I add that this is not a criticism of the groundkeeper. Far from it. I suspect the pitch will be juicy for days.

We are way on top but only because the WI can't catch to save themselves. Fuck me they dropped some sitters, they should be all over us after putting us in on that pitch. Not good enough at this level
Generally if you bowl first you need to roll through the opposition for 150 - 200 or you are behind the 8 ball. That said this Basin pitch doesn't seem to break up much, and given how green it was today it'll probably be best for batting on days 4/5. There's still a big mental hurdle to get over batting last though, and we have a quality bowling lineup.

Well done Nicholls. Listening on the radio the innings sounded as streaky and lucky as you could possibly get, but what an important knock.
Nicholls has the distinction of getting the 99th and 100th test century at the Basin.
