I like the way these 2 are batting. They know their name is on 1, so when they play a shot, they are throwing the kitchen sink at it.

Nice little counter attack here. Head doesn't look like he's lost any intent which is good

Commentators on Prime7 are suggesting that the Poms are on top here but 250 looks like a decent score to me ???

301* now.
I reckon that's a very good score. Esp as Poms haven't passed 300 on tour

Ha.
At the start of the Ashes the Poms start with Haseem and Burns.
Burns stinks it up for a while and they drop him.
Crawley comes in to join Haseem and makes some runs.
Haseem stinks it up and they replace him with Burns.
Burns shows us once again he stinks.

Last night I saw Carl Barron in Newy, never laughed so hard.

Until now..

Clueless Morons. Aus were at par last night and getting above 300 is definitely above par

1st Burns nicks 1, no appeal, let alone review.

Now Malan nicks 1, and no review.

Geez!
