We haven't been able to build any pressure at all. Boundary balls all over the place.

Holy poo poo a wicket

I like Burns but that was a bit Wattoesque. Kind of robotic footwork and just waving at the ball. Needs to tighten that up a bit. Still a good first wicket partnership. Will we see the traditional Australian collapse after getting off to a great start.

Finally a wicket falls. Burns did pretty well, at least.

Warner has to be one of the best runners between the wickets in world cricket. What a speedy little fella he is.

It's good to see David Warner playing that stupid mid wicket jab without fear of a swinging ball or any pitch danger at all.

I think other than Smith footwork is an area most Australian batsman need to work on. I like Burns though. No tons yet but he's also yet to fail completely. He's like the anti-Smarsh so far

He's like the anti-Smarsh so far Dare I say it but Australian cricketers are very robotic which for mine comes from overuse of bowling machines. Particularly in rep junior cricket sides. One doesn't have to bat like Smith and AB where it doesn't matter where the stumps are but just little adjustments like taking a small step towards the off side as a trigger movement.

Great century from Davey. He is certainly good in Australia.

The whole Mark Craig thing is pretty depressing - he's done ok so far in his career but we all knew it was mainly luck and he'd get carted by good batsmen. At best he's our 4th best spinner behind Patel, Sodhi & Astle but we just go ahead and get this inevitable outcome.

I think that's being a little unfair on Craig. This isn't a good pitch for basically and of our bowlers sadly.

I've seen good off spinners fail in Australia. This Craig fellow doesn't look great.
