    Geriatric Waj at the crease now, let's hope he doesn't put a hip out as well

    Turns 39 tomorrow. I wonder if he'll still be batting then ?

    Should've had the Waj for 5 and 51/3 - which would have had England well on top on what's likely going to be a pretty benign pitch for much of the match.

    They look very much like bowling Usman back into form.

    Bus change throws his wicket away first ball after lunch.

    And now Green too busy thinking about his T20 earnings plays an equally lazy shot.

    Poor focus from Australia. Phoning it in after lunch.

    Far out. Jacks is a mediocre offspinner who's just getting belted. Poor selection and being treated disdainfully by the Aussies.

    Basically an English Michael Bracewell. I wonder if they call him beast too ?

    First class bowling average of 42 with less wickets than matches.

    Kind of a specialist number 8 batsman who bowls a bit ?

    Waj gets himself out to Jacks of all people. They will take 82 runs from him though!!

    Some unusually soft dismissals from the Aussie top order today.

    50 overs in 2 sessions is a bit shit, even with a spinner bowling.

    238/5 and Australia getting on top now. Khawaja and Carey have done most of the damage.

    Can't believe The Waj didn't make a hundred - what was his scriptwriter up to? Gone to the bar for a beer?!!!

    And as I type, Tongue bowls Inglis. Desperately needed wicket. They've got to mop up the tail tonight and quickly.

    Given the firepower at Oz' disposal 300 will likely be a challenging score.

    Quite un-Australian like today - yet another wicket gifted more than earned.

    I suspect 300 will be tough as well on this pitch even with wickets that were given away
