State Vice-Captain
Well played uzzie.
Despite winning the last one this has to be the best day of cricket in the series so far for Australia. Gone swimmingly.

Pretty good day. That partnership helps. Need to carry on, but if we bat past lunch it'll be tough to beat us.

even day. aus have starc and green as their quicks plus 3 inexperienced spinners set to bowl on a road. hopefully we equal their 1st innings score ourselves and umesh/shami reverse swing it in the 3rd innings and shoot them out to setup an easy chase when track gets more abrasive. don't expect it to turn much even on day 4 or 5

Massive opportunity for Green to go large tomorrow. Think it's fair to say today was the first time he's batted like how he did for WA before he got selected

I think it's fair to say that went about as well as could have been realistically expected of Australia
