*Official* Second Test at the Adelaide Oval

Best way of thinking of it is that this pitch would be a normal Adelaide pitch if the match started on about Tuesday. So today is more like a day four Adelaide pitch, minus the player caused wear and tear. It will fall off a cliff faster than what previous pitches have done because of this.
Don't doubt that it will spin (and probably become more up and down) but only question is whether it will be fast or slow turn and the hardness of pitch base will dictate that to a degree

Australia showing good intent here.

This is a very good start for us. Should get to 400 at least.

Man Carberry's quick and they've mentioned that heaps but he really can't throw or catch. Still laughing about that dropped catch in the ODI v Ireland a couple of months ago
