Nice to see Blackwood making another score.


I'm gutted for Steve Smith. He is in the mother of purple patches right now and a mega ton is just around the corner for him... in England, surely.

Hazlwood, Starc and Lyon will be the 3 leading wicket takers in the Ashes.

So who is the 4th bowler. MJ or Rhino?

50 and out for Blackwood. Shame, he's an entertaining batter.

Aussies don't enforce the follow on very often.

Not sure the umpires should be overturning that. No proof the onfield decision was wrong.

If it presents itself, for once I would be in favour of Clarke enforcing it.

Early in the test, last test of the 'series', it will happen early in the day and they haven't had too much of a time in the field. Go for it, Clarkie.

I am confident that he did nick it, but I agree. No definitive evidence.

No 'real time snicko' to go with no Hotspot?

I wonder if he thinks it might be a chance to give the top order some batting practice?

Bowling seems fine

I can see Harris missing out, until someone breaks down. Our bowlers are on fire. I'd drop Twatto for Rhino personally, but the selectors won't do that.

Still better than nothing.

The noise didn't seem synchronised with the ball going past the bat.

Fine work by the Aussie attack. Awesome.
