and the main issue being the slow scoring rate all day to date. Haven't they learnt from the past two days? There's no point just trying to survive. Hit out and score some quick runs.

Disagree completely. Hitting out gets you out on this surface. Taylor and Brownlie have shown the way to go.

James can you issue a warning to Zinzan for jinxing.

Like Haddin did?

 

[Tricia McMillan]

It seems the Kiwi posters have all merged into one amorphous blob.

Like this?

 

[Burgey]

Starc's best spell at test level so far.

 

[Spark]

Indeed, generic NZ poster.

PEWS has also been absorbed into the blob.

Have a look at the four highest scores in the match to date. All but one (Taylor) scored at a good rate.

As Khawaja and others have showed, if all your going to do is try and survive, eventually your going to get an unplayable delivery and you'll be dismissed.

Lovely reverse-jinxwork by the commentators.

Haha, there you go, not that I buy into that superstitious nonsense

Have a look at the match situation. Batting gets easier as the days go on and as the ball gets older.

Well yeah Khawaja swung too far the other way, but Williamson and Brownlie never looked to force the pace. They took opportunities the bowlers gave them and respected the good deliveries.

 

[Athlai]

Young still on for a "Nasser" pair.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

What are the commentators on about? Brownlie's never been much of a foot-mover, rattled or not.

 

[Zinzan]

On a serious note, every run is bonus territory as far as I'm concerned, will be happy if we can squeeze another 50 runs out of these last 3 wickets.

 

[Flem274*]

Bugger.

200 odd will be the target.

 

[Athlai]

"It's not the West Indies attack"

What decade is he in?

**** wicket.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

Agh...
