Managed to blag WFH again tomorrow, so another all night session coming up.

i only made it till 5am last night, so need to go the extra hour today, but already feeling knackered so its coffee time. hopefully a couple of early wickets will happen

good thinking, off to the kettle!

The weather folk here are suggesting a band of rain for the last day, could be our 12th man.

I'd dozed off on the sofa for about half an hour last night, then the cheering for the first wicket of Siddles hatrick woke me up

 

[highway61]

Am going to be watching from my bed which may not be best move when it comes to avoiding dozing off

 

[Marc]

Finns on, come on lanky!

 

[pasty]

I'm getting a horrible feeling this is going to be a terribly long day for England. Other than the near run out, we've hardly had a sniff of a wicket.

 

[Marc]

suns come out....that did'nt help, all it takes is one wicket to change things

 

[highway61]

Swann will have a lot of bowling to do today, would like to see him on soon

 

[Brighton Boy]

I'm getting concerned at the distinct lack of imagination coming from England so far. Nearly an hour and a half played and we've been bowling the same stuff from the start. Need to start mixing things up a bit.
