    the problem was the soft as butter australian who found a tiny object on the massive screen and stopped play. not SCG's problem, twitchy Smith's problem.

    Game is crawling long, Aussies on go slow but also dropping wickets. Old mate's 82 looking even more like a gem of knock now.

    Happened Day 1 with one of the Pakistan bats as well.

    So not just Smith

    Soft as ghee?

    Should maybe focus on the three short covers rather than the tiny speck on the sightscreen

    Jamal's having a great game but, fuck me, that's some ball to bowl Shafique (once he found his line)!

    ...and now Hazelwood has Masood.

    The commentators often go on about unplayable balls and you think - Sachin or Brian or Viv or Don would have played that comfortably.

    But that Starc one reminds me of Fred Trueman cleaning up some kid.

    On one occasion, a Cambridge University batsman, having just been dismissed, acknowledged him with the condescending compliment: "That was a very good ball, Mr Trueman". Trueman replied: "Aye, wasted on thee".

    It was going to get most!

    Oz need 130 to win.

    Khawaja lbw for 0 - pretty rough decision, really - ball just brushing the off stump for an umpires call - but, I seem to have seen quite a few of those in the past few weeks.

    Davy's last test innings.

    Dave and Marnus making no race of it.

    50 for Davy.

    Luckily Marnus has been going so well that 100 is beyond DW! 🙂

    Davey has retired with a test average lower than Mark Richardson. (44.59 vs 44.77).

    That makes me happy.
