Dropped Jayawarene again. I understand Strauss being the first slip because it's arguably the easiest place in the slips but if we're only going to have one slip I'd rather it was somebody else TBH.

struggling in the slips. struggling with the willow. goes hand in hand doesn't it.

260-280 will make this a very interesting game I feel. Gonna be a test indeed for the poms batting.

'Interesting' as in giving SL a three-figure lead?

They'll get comfortably more than 280 though.

And another edge drops short. Poor Jimmy, can be forgiven for feeling aggrieved he's been superb again today.

If I've counted right, that's four play & misses, one drop and one landing just short in his last 3 overs. That really is a quite superb spell for naff all reward. They'll both go on and make big tons now, you'd think.


EDIT
And taken off????
I know he's probably knackered, but wtf?

Need to give him some recovery time before he takes the new ball, tbf.
