If we follow on, this pitch isn't spicy enough to roll us over cheaply and quickly imo. Now if monday was forecast clear then I would be a bit more worried.Was pretty sure but a bit less now. If KP plays on we have a good chance but if it's co-lapse then it depend on how **** we plays in the second innings.
In one!Yeah give Taylor a chance at 6, Bairstow is a waste of space.
Has barley donned the gloves a year, and his batting form really fell away in England and the first two Australian tests. Needs to show he can keep getting runs and keep well for a sustained period to overleap someone like Prior who's been doing it for over three years now.Prior the best wicket-keeper batsmen in the world? AB?
Warne said batsmen first so I assume he meant the batting part of the job, AB seems to have adjusted well now, would also say Chandimal is slightly better than PriorHas barley donned the gloves a year, and his batting form really fell away in England and the first two Australian tests.

I don't think so. There's two days left after this and the pitch isn't going to get any easier to bat on. If England get bowled out in the next 15-20 overs just over 200 behind I think Australia will bat tomorrow until tea or something and score as quickly as possible and then give themselves four sessions to win. Rain is the key variable though, only reason for enforcing would be if you don't expect to play much on day 5.Would be absolutely ridiculous not to
Haha that's such a cherry-pick.Has barley donned the gloves a year, and his batting form really fell away in England and the first two Australian tests.

FWIW, I think AB has done a fine job with the gloves. It's more a case of whether he can sustain run scoring for a prolonged period when wearing the gloves. Obviously with it occupying more training time, creating more fatigue etc, it gets harder.Warne said batsmen first so I assume he meant the batting part of the job, AB seems to have adjusted well now, would also say Chandimal is slightly better than Prior
