WTH are the Aussies doing? Everytime I hit the refresh button they've lost another wicket!
Wow, and I thought England got off to a bad start yesterday... still, plenty of time for the tail to wag.
Perfect timing... Agar is in!Originally Posted by kalniel
Still lots of runs to beat the follow on though....

Oops. What were you saying?
Roflmao!
They're gonna need more than just tea....
Yep. Question is, would England want to enforce the follow on.. pitch is still good, but must be tempting to have another go at them when they're playing like this.
Even if we get the opportunity (and lets not forget Australia's tail traditionally scores the better half of their runs), no way do you enforce the follow on on the second day with the lead likely to be less than 250. I would not want to be chasing a tricky 180 on a dry, dusty fourth day wicket, and our batting hasn't been particularly solid. Get back in, make them spend another 4 sessions in the field, and leave them with 2 days to survive and > 450 to score in the final innings.
I'd enforce it. Bowlers are still fresh and they'd only have another couple of hours before an overnight rest!

Hadden to the rescue. Now 5th highest batsman with 7 runs to his tally
Maybe they should try a reverse grid.. er batting order for the second innings..

Oh.
erm ... OK, 9 down 257 behind. Maybe we should enforce it after all...
No idea about the wicket but psychologically it'll hit them if we put them back in.
Er.. what's going on? Anyone have an explanation? They agreed before hand that the winner has to take the loser out to dinner or something?
And the cake's come out...
