And for goodness sake, does Mark Waugh ever let anyone else finish a sentence?

Well it looks like Ussie is neither in T20 mode or really caring about farming the strike.

Australia will probably get bowled out with like 15mins left concede an 80 run lead and then take 3 wickets ... and then think... maybe we should've been bowling earlier

And they've declared... good call... probably couldn't have asked for a better session even with the deficit

Biggest issue is that Cummins is probably spent... will need Starc and Hazelwood to be very good with the new ball

Why declare?
So they can bowl.

They'll have about 15 overs at them tonight... both teams have been 5 down in that timeframe during the day in this test

Would be nice if Green actually did something significant with the ball as well.

I feel Cummins not bowling Green enough was an issue in the first innings.

It was like 37 degrees on day 1 and they were baking in the sun the whole day... Starc, Hazelwood and Cummins looked completely gassed by the time the night session actually came around.

When you've got Green bowling at 140kph he should've been bowling 10 overs or so and Marsh also bowling. They bowled 9 between them in the first innings.

Head should've been bowling more as well. He only got 3 when they were trying to get to the new ball.

On the other hand Starc bowled 24, Hazelwood 20 and Cummins 23... Lyon also bowled 28 and wasn't really getting anything or looking threatening.

As soon as it was obvious that the old ball wasn't going to do anything then share the load so the heavy hitters are fresher for the evening session and the new ball that was coming.

If they want to win this match he'll bloody need to.

They could get like 3 wickets tonight if they use the new ball properly

Just realised there's only 30mins left... feel they batted too long and won't get to utilise this new ball under lights for long enough now

And now Smith drops one. This does not look like a happy team right now.
