These two making this look ridiculously easy. Taylor and Williamson must be kicking themselves.

He's clearly been working on it from what I've seen. His last couple of Shield games have been much better in terms of results so his defence is tightening up in that area but he's still not playing any off side drives against the better bowlers. He's slowly turning himself into a more talented version of Flynn. :p

The new CA directive to make the domestic pitches a bit flatter should help him develop that part of his game I reckon.
pssht, being Australian doesn't make him talented. He's just gutless.:p

stupid from Dougeh.

Wouldn't bother with Eranga if I was Jayawardene. Get the spinners on and wait for Timmeh to spoon one to deep mid wicket.

I don't mind Russel Arnold as a commentator, but I do wish he'd shut up about the run rate. Unless, these two somehow miraculously bat through until tomorrow morning, there's absolutely no point in looking to lift the rpo.

I'd agree with him if we were at a Franklin/Flynn-esque standstill, but these two are moving along pretty nicely without doing anything stupid so why change that

get to 420, start swinging, declare with half an hour left.

we can't bowl 3 days straight on this and win - the bowlers will be shattered. we need to get them out, slog for a session then bowl again.
