Allow me to be as pessimistic as possible. As someone once said somewhere, domed.

I'm stopping following for a bit to have tea. A bit like keep looking out to see if it's stopped raining yet. It hasn't. Hello Mudda, hello Fadda... :(

I now reckon that they'll declare on 600+ sometime after tea. Have an hour at us and we'll finish on about 25-3 :(
Looks like I simply got my timings wrong. That's pretty much where we were with two hours left to play. :hang:

Been re-watching the 2005 highlights (first one here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fYlmM3pjltc" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;)

Fantastic stuff. Also contrast the class of Warne, Lee and McGrath with that gobby c*nt Johnson.

To score 142-4 (current) and still trail by 424 is a totally freak situation. If they can do it, we can do it. Come on lads, get at those upside-downers. :oyea:

All out and 254 behind. Normally, 312 isn't that bad an innings. Right now it seems like nothing. We really do need something good to happen.

From the minute they scored such a big total, it was always going to be about how we bat. We're clearly going to be chasing an unlikely total, so I really wouldn't expect to see any reverse sweeps etc...
