Aussies catch 1.
But it's Boland, who does no wrong. Green has Woakes caught on the fence.

We'll just ignore the 2x 90s and 2x 30s in the series for a pair.

And that it's a VERY green pitch.
And that it's under lights.
AND it's a new ball vs an all-time great.
Literally the toughest time to bat.

Picking up the pink ball in the field for sharp catches is an absolute nightmare.

What a day/night for Boland. He had the disappointment of two catches dropped from his bowling and is then sent out as a night watchman. Again he does the job. Cometh the hour, cometh the man.

We are cutting this a bit fine for my liking.
250 is probably enough, but Poms will feel thats chasable.
300 is safe.
So, somewhere in the middle will be interesting. But need to get as close as possible to that last session to get best use of the new ball
