All over. Better than it might have been, but not as good as it should have been from 270 for 4.

Reading the last page or so, loving the idea that Broad is the only guy playing the game with an iffy attitude and who doesn't walk. Obviously we've seen none of them from elsewhere over the years.

The prank review.

Australia should seriously make like 600 on this pitch. Absolutely in the box seat if Watson and Rogers get through the new ball. All depends on Anderson.

Looking like a very interesting chase so far. Australia to please score lots of runs for the first time since Hussey retired.

Got to see off the new ball though. Hope Watson has the sense not to blast away from the first ball. Given how the pitch has been behaving, we should only need about 10 overs of more cautious play.

My pick for a massive score would be Hughes if he wasn't batting at 6 incidentally. Bit of a weird spot for a guy who really cashes in when he's set. Still think he'll go alright.

Steve Waugh yesterday on TMS admitted that he never walked, and would never encourage any of his players to do so. Apparently players are brought up in Australia being told not to walk, and that the umpires decision is to be respected, correct or incorrect. Had more of an issue with Broad stopping to do his shoelaces up to waste time.

I get that Broad is within his dubious so-called rights to stay his crease but why in hell would sensible English posters justify, endorse and then revel in a cheat like him?

yeah TAOC did alright considering it was an indie project. Ross said they're announcing who'll be on the cover next Friday, hopefully that includes a release date. Oh wow AC13 looks deplorable, have you seen that gameplay video on Vine?
Just seen it, and my god. That is some of the worst batting physics I have ever seen. It looks like they've taken several backward steps, not moved forward. Looks plain awful. I really hope it doesn't look like that when it comes out, be embarrassing if it does.
