dont think it was that bad decision to review. if it gets reversed, its a key time for a wicket. use your reviews vs the top 6 imo

also short leg was absolutely convinced, cant blame him

edit: to clarify i prob wouldnt have reviewed if it was me but i can understand why he did. 4.30 and im rambling....

Not the worst afternoon session for us, but Belly and Cooky really need to go on and get tons.

Also, I'm 1 tabling a dollar donkament while I watch. It's awful. Makes me so happy that I can play 20 tables when I'm grinding.

290-6 would be pretty decent by the end of the day. and thats my prediction

average 1st innings score at the gabba is 402 (past ten years) so thats what we gotta shoot for.

am tempted to fire up a few tables myself. would be pure spewage for me though

so tilting to watch that annoying floppy haired git watson complaining about being no-balled.

Lol, and back on within another 90 seconds. Covers never even got there so all that shower has done is juice the pitch up a bit for Siddle to shoot out the tail.

Happy Birthday Peter Siddle tho - hatrick and career best when he was nearly not picked.

What price a Belly ton now, with a bit of crease time support from Jimmy?

Odds must be crashing on Bell to be top scorer though, he really looks different class!

At that point, with the batting left to come (Jimmy and Finny) it was totally worth it imo, if only just to see whether it was a no-ball.

Somewhat slipping under the radar is the fact that in the other Test Match happening at the moment, Sangakkara got to 150 against the West Indies. Classy batsman.

Lunchtime score
SL 387/9d and in reply WI 7/1 in the third over, Barath lbw to Kulasekara, appeal by WI rejected by 3rd umpire.

Cant beat Ian healy, yells out EDGE! and the ball ends up in the covers and he says oh I thought he edged that to the slips.

I dont think he was even watching the ball
