If Smith doesn't enforce the follow on and Pakistan show a bit more fight in the second innings I might see some extended action on day 4  ;D ;D ;D
Mark Nicholas just said something about thunderstorms tomorrow so might get that refund after all!
If the match lasts past today haha
reckon the perfect scenario would be for us to make them follow on and have em 9 down for bugger all at stumps so it goes to day 4, but it gets rained out so you get that refund

...well the perfect scenario would be for the Pakis to show some fight and the rain to stay away so you can spend all day getting hammered in that pool watching some cricket but you know what I mean :P

I'd be pretty happy to never see Wade or Maddinson in the national squad again, or the test side at the very least.

Ashton Turner should get a crack this series, currently the best number 6 in the Sheffield Sheild, great fielder and a handy part time spinner as well.
Absolutely no WA bias involved at all ;)
Huge Ashton Turner fan, so I'm right on board with this.

tiiiiny tiny edge

he genuinely thought he didn't hit it

that ain't gonna get people on your side Maddo

Gee Video Reviews have taken away all the benefit of doubt to batsmen these days. Lighting up of bails proves to be the difference here as there was definitely no way without it you could have given that out,

Bat Maddo at 3. Can score quickly, and gives him one more chance to prove himself at this level. He won't get to do shower at 6.

and I think they light up before they are completely dislodged. that would be given not out if not for the zing bails, no doubt

Why won't the Aussies enforce the follow on anymore ?

They seem to like grinding teams into the dirt and ensuring there's literally no way back.

Sport's scientists forcing the bowlers to get a rest

We had them on the ropes nearly 300 up the bowlers are fresh and bowling well just seems that aspect of test cricket is gone well for the Aussies anyway they need to grow some coconuts and go for the kill

Probably didn't want to be bowling all day in this heat. I'd imagine we'll be bowling in the final session tonight with a 450+ lead.

All has it done has handed Pakistan back the momentum as you can see it is a very good bowling track , that's why players are paid huge salaries to do it a bit hard work in the heat if that is the best option
