Shame Lyon didn’t get five wickets.

Best pressure building spell I have seen him bowl.

Abbas could be a worry, but it will probably be Shah and Bilal who are the biggest worry.

Horrible shot Usman!

Followed by another that moved off the seam.

Usman does play some horrible shots. He does not have the tightest of techniques.

Thought it only hit the pad.

Was out of the room getting more beer when the replay took place.

Failure Usman.

Abbas is starting to look like a potent medium fast bowler like Vernon Philander.

it is a shame about losing those 2 wickets in the last few overs.

It has put us under pressure, particularly losing Usman.

It is time for Marsh to stand up and be counted. He was criticised by all and sundry when I was out last night.

I’ve only just tuned in to see I’ve missed a lot of runs scored and Shaun Marsh.

He should’ve been dropped. He is too old, with too little to show in his career.

Renshaw has displayed a wonderful defence in Asia.

Abbas had Marsh caught in slips.

3-36 and we are in big trouble.

Nothing to panic about at moment.. one of those to fall was a bowler. Marsh jr pushed down the order.

Abbas has Head caught in slips.

He has a strike rate of 43 in Asia, which is amazing.

He must be the world’s current premier pace bowler bowling at 130kph.

According to Mark Waugh, Shaun M is reaching too far in front of his body, instead of playing later with the bat more below the eyeline.

Also, he contends Marsh needs to play with softer hands.

I’d prefer to see him dropped altogether.

I’m going to the gym during the lunch break.

I hope someone will report back about Lee analyzing why Abbas has been so successful in the lunch break.

Australia are 6-87.

There is so much pressure with 4 close catching fielders and the keeper around the bat to the spinners.

Sadly, I’ve seen Paine fail a lot for Tassie.

He is batting better at Test level.

Spoke too soon!

Absolute shambles of a team, only we could have a team 5/60 and a day later have more or less lost the test.

Yep we had them on the ropes but failed to find that killer punch. Labuchane was introduced too late.

I  reckoned both Mitch and Tim looked quite comfortable. Just the one good ball brings both undone and suddenly we are in diabolical trouble.

 Does Australia have an Abbas or Philander type bowler?

One positive is Finch though, he has looked really solid and it just makes me even more frustrated it took this long for him to get his chance. Should have been in the team a long time ago.
