Would it have been out? At the ground and we didn’t get a replay

Looked like it missed on normal replay down the wicket. Slight hot spot though

[canefan]

So when do we declare? Bat until dusk then make them try to survive the evening?

[Paekakboyz]

@duluth slight inside edge 😁

[canefan]

As poor and at sea as Nicholls looked in the ODIs, he has done well in the whites so far this match

DRS is good - pre DRS people would be having a whinge about the umpire and it wouldn't feel as good if CDG got a big score. Now no one cares that he was lucky.

Paying the price for the ridiculous LBW review against KW on day 1.

[Paekakboyz]

Do you think all of these guys had a mutual laugh about the Oz situation?

There's always a chance of a collapse but in the absence of that, I'd declare with around 130 overs left in the test. Should be enough runs not to have to bat again but a decent spell with a 2nd new ball if required.

[Paekakboyz]

Hundy!! Good man!

[No Quarter]

Brilliant hundred. His first was against SA too, so he can score against the best. Well played son.

[Sneakdefreak]

Mediocre in the shorter forms of the game but seems very comfortable in the test format. Well done.

[Paekakboyz]

@sneakdefreak the anti-guptill!!

[hydro11]

I think Nicholls can be good at all formats but batting him at 6 in ODIs is redundant.

[No Quarter]

300 lead. Realistically they won't have time to set us a target now, so would like to see us kick on or declare in the near future.

[Paekakboyz]

Both Smith and rigor were adamant we need to be bowling this session. But not so early we lose the shine for the evening session.

[Godder]

Time to declare IMO. Bring up 400 if they must, but they need to be bowling at them, not batting now.

[Damo]

I think we keep batting till very late in this session. I like the idea of having a new ball for each night session. Both tonight's and tomorrow nights (if needed)

[mimic]

Southree out, but a bit of justice, as I thought he was run out earlier.

[sterling]

They will just try to get 500 or so and then bowl them all out tomorrow!!!!!
it is going to be good!!!
