This rain is absolutely killing me. There's only so many Big Bash re-runs you can watch...

Day 3 at Sydney is the Pink Day for the Jane McGrath foundation, unfortunately rain spoiled the day.

Day 4 washed out. This must be the improvement holder called for! They've taken a test match to the 5th day!

At least Warner gave the crowd a bit of entertainment after no cricket for a few days

Agreed .. If they had atleast 3 days of the test match, i am sure Australia would have gone up 3-0 in this series. Warner smashed the bowlers around while Joe Burns was watching at the other end.

Surely if it had happened, it would be border line match fixing? Unless all the public would be aware of declarations etc.

Do you think they could declare without everyone's knowledge?

Its hard to do this now days because of the gambling interest. They should start thinking about the public and be able
to call it a draw and have a exhibition 20/20 or 50 over match like they did a few times many years
ago and charge a gold coin donation fee for a charity.
