    Pitch seems to be playing fairly true.

    Santner looks about as threatening as a sofa. And now has an injury to his bowling hand...

    He's made a few good plays, but as a bowler is concerned Mitch is a waste of space

    I've said this before but Mitch is a deeply flawed selection at test level. He's basically there to give us a bit of batting insurance, but it's not needed with our current crop of players. It's such a defensive selection and it does my head in. A 42 average with a 96 SR is laughably bad stats after 20 odd tests, he's nothing more than a part timer with the ball.

    If CDG is fit I guess Mitch is out. Even so, on our pitches we could and should play a more attacking bowling option. Even though he has a 100, Mitch can only dine out on that and be framed as a legitimate batting option for so long

    Santner is a waste of a place in the test team. At least Mitchell can land the ball in the same place consistently...

    Would be an average of 45 now given he went in with 44.

    Because hes such an integral part of our white ball cricket, I actually feel a bit sorry for him each time they put him in the test team. Not an ideal emotion...

    Pakistan doing really well here. If they hold on, could cost us a chance of going to the test cricket final.

    That said, outstanding rearguard

    Well done Fawad. Well deserved century showing patience to snatch a draw for his country. One wonders would he have done so against the Australian bowling attack..?

    So what went through the umpire’s mind to not give that?

    Not a criticism, more just interested.

    Too high I'm guessing?

    Those two wickets open the door for us with 20 odd overs left to bowl.

    Great stand from Fawad and Rizwan to shut us out for 70 odd overs

    That's a terrible shot. Almost like catching practice.

    Don't get replays but I swear Jamieson bowls back foot no balls when wide.

    And as I type, Baz explains a rule change...
