Australia has moved to 7/416. Brazen 135* and Lee 26*.
To magnificent tons were brought up...Brazen's and Apil Krumble. Brazen is amongst the runs like a coprophiliac at a loose stoolfest. He is going slowly, as is the Australian innings. I think its the way to bat. There are ten sessions left in this test, and India are primed for one of their first test collapses for which they are famous.
Watson was no good. His technique wasn't enough to save his pegs. His average was the second worst in the test team (prior to White coming and going).
Kumble 0/117 from 41 overs. But hey, he's bowled two maidens. Actually, apart from his stupid 'only one side playing cricket' comment, I've always like Apil.
Tuckerbox looked good after a slow start, before getting out to a poor shot of a slower, slower ball. But he can take comfort that Cam White then came out and fell to the EXACT...SAME...BALL.
Meanwhile Brazen inside edged to 100 (he has a habit of getting his tons from risky shots). And the newly-single Brett Lee came out to bat.
Synopsis - is a big word. Australia are well in front. There are criticisms of their pace, but anyone who has played on a variable pitch knows how hard it is to score quick. i think a late declaration could set up the game tonight.
But the big news - ABC radio isn't using Kerry O'keefe (he of the laugh) and Harsha Bogle (who really works best with Kerry anyway.
