It is the same thing Red has a dye applied and kookaburra claim it is the same, the players reckon white ball swings more.

I do think it is the mindset in test as you have no pressure of time and take your time in and staying in.

Brad an has scored 300 in a day and I think Shewag came close by scoring 270 something

So basically it is temperament and approach by the batsman and playing positive Cricket nothing different.

I think England might as well trying belting it around then. Can’t be any worse lol.

There’s two outcomes here.

1) England lose a few wickets today and then get finished off early tomorrow.

2) England scrape through today. Some get vague hopes up of breaking all records. Then a huge collapse tomorrow and finished off early.

Option 1 I reckon we have what 25 overs still

Lyon injured or on the naughty step? That's twice he hasn't had a knock :D

I really don't expect us to get anywhere near, but at least make a bloody fight of it. Come on, 250 please at least.

I agree

A lot of harsh criticism for Hameed.

Taken his chance to get form back in county cricket.
Had a half decent summer when recalled to the team.

Has now had to go and play in Australia for the first time with ZERO preparation and no time in the middle.

Dropped :-)

Agreed.

I have a degree of sympathy cos we rarely give him the platform or circumstance to play his natural game.

Not that it’s excused his poor form.

By smith lol

Lbw review

Malan gone

Option 1 coming up fast…

Can't be getting out to that donkey

Lol yes

This, in spades. Some of the comments on here are hugely ignorant.

We need to stick with Hameed for the foreseeable. But he needs some proper coaching and guidance.

Horrible to listen to with a pretty much all Aussie commentary team

I saw this lbw and the one the Aussie earlier got away with. How is Paul reiffel the third umpire?

Covid ? Can’t get enough neutral umps out there ?
