We only have to win this one to break an unbroken spell since 2009. Let us see if it is the pitch or not.

Throws his wicket away trying to hit Smith the Worthy out of the ground. Smith brought on just to rush two or three overs to get to the second new ball, and get a wicket. Nice stuff.

Watching TV one gets to see Indians and Italians, Pakistanis and well just about any non-English accented people sound just like they were born in Scotland and never spoke anything else.

But then I see a beautiful Indian girl at the local Coles who hardly says a word but when she does see some other Indians walking in, she waves and says “g’dday mates” in an ocker accent.

A fantastic ball from Siddle – pitching on off and just moving away slightly off the deck – finds Du Plessis’ edge and Haddin takes the catch. A vital wicket for Australia.

Just any prick that can handle a bat and occupy the crease for two days would be nice. If they did this till stumps tomorrow we’ll win – swell. If it gets rained out we draw – swell. If we get impatient if the run-rate drops below 3 – we lose.

Exactly, when I went to sleep we were about 1 for 400 and cruising, then I woke up, fumbled for my glasses, put my teeth in and hit the button that turns the radio back on and station surfed for the score, then I sat bolt upright.
