Its insane how reliant we are on Travis Head at the moment

Will be a majority blue in the crowd I'd say. Hopefully they get the pleasure of sitting there and watching the Aussie batsman ply their trade.

No Ubers to get home

Not a great fan of Smiths antics , but congrats on a great knock , so helped by great Head

Konstas a good move , Usman should be out , Starc and Cummins got him knicking off in the nets today , he's done.
Head in doubt with Quad , who comes in Inglis or Webster ?
Next in will be Cooper Connelly can do it all .
Vics need to get another Under 19 with Konstas in Harry Dixon

Webster would be smart move if head misses, as he provides additional bowling option. 40c then good weather for the rest of the test.

I went to a Big Bash game last night, and it reminded me of a type of person I'll never understand... those who root for a Big Bash team, rather than just hoping for a great display of batting from either team. 41,000 people cheering as their side turned an entire innings into a game of singles, dot balls and wickets.

I dare say we couldn't have asked for much more from Day 2. If you had have told me we got close to 500 in the first and had India 5 down by the stumps I would take it just about every day of the week.

Well I thought Smith was stuffed, shows what I know

It's a long list of people that thought he was. Me included.

Since the Grand Final, I’ve been contemplating if there has ever been a more mentally soft bunch of sportsmen than our boys in a Grand Final. Today, I think I got my answer.

Bumrah is a once in a generation bowler
Goodbye Usman and Mitch . In Webster for Marsh and Usman can have a farewell.
Please do not play Abbot.
