Aussies caught poorly, shiv batted well, wicket is flat. If we bat like we did for the last few overs yesterday it should be an interesting day.

When David Warner's at the crease, cricket's always interesting in some way, shape or form!

Superb piece of captaincy from Clarke, forcing the opposition to do exactly what they didn't want to do, 3 quick wickets before tea after declaring 50 odd runs behind. Can't think of many other skippers who would've been as bold certainly not Strauss lol.

As innings's from No. 11's go it was sublime lol, not bad for someone who was a groundsman a few years back :)

I'm really quite impressed with him, all round really! :D
Yeah I know, 2 years a go was a groundsman, now playing test cricket for Australia. Good going if you ask me :)

Why do the Windies batsmen knock a bail into the ground when making a mark? :)

Its a tradition mainly followed by batsmen from Guyana.

On the whole, its been a pretty good test match to watch! Having seen quite a bit of each day, the WI outfit don't look that bad in home condition, with bat and ball. However Rampaul has to come back into the team at the expense of Edwards I feel.

i think the windies are moving in the right direction, they are becoming a more competitive team. they are a pretty young side too.

So australia declare on 160/8 leaving WI 215 to win with 61 overs left in the day, but fading light, could be interesting.....

I think the concentration from David Warner has showed the improvements he has made to his game.
