Looking at the 512 km radar now. Will that band hit melbourne or pass south? And will it be stronger or weaker when it reaches melbourne, considering it is already pouring it down where it is.

I wonder if Pakistan would consider a declaration?

Not sure it would change the result but would send the exchange into flux

By:

detraveller When: 27 Dec 16 22:28

Don't think they will even think of declaration. Get a draw here and go to Sydney with the possibility of squaring the series. Sounds good enough.

surely their best chance is making them follow on ? try and get to 400 asap. then they're gonna have bowl them out twice for not much more than 200 even if we get 2 days play from here which looks doubtful

By:

pxb When: 27 Dec 16 23:08

10.35 start. If it doesn't rain.

Hamlin When: 27 Dec 16 23:15

Any chance of a result here?

By:

Whisperingdeath When: 27 Dec 16 23:28

slim just left town Hamlin!

Hamlin When: 27 Dec 16 23:29

Draw odds look tasty then

By:

detraveller When: 27 Dec 16 23:31

I laid a lot of my draw green at 2.1 yesterday. But recovered after backing again at 1.56. I really can't see a result here but its Pakistan and just two tests ago they beat 1.08 :D

By:

jucel69 When: 27 Dec 16 23:38

Aus look incredibly short

By:

pxb When: 28 Dec 16 00:38

Batting looks easy.

By:

pxb When: 28 Dec 16 01:05

Pak declare at lunch I think.

By:

detraveller When: 28 Dec 16 01:05

Nothing in the pitch to support anything other than the draw.

If it goes sub 1.1 today, do cover your reds as the Pakistanis may lay it themselves.

They should really declare 20 mins before lunch & give themselves 2 overs

By:

jucel69 When: 28 Dec 16 01:07

he wants 200

By:

jucel69 When: 28 Dec 16 01:08

quite a bit of turn now

By:

Shah might do well.

Have a slog and hope for quick runs and a follow on. Hard to win batting again from here.

I put a fair lay of Aus in with most of my green at 7.4 before today so this suits me nicely although really need the improbable Pak win.

By:

jucel69 When: 28 Dec 16 01:24

This game has been a draw backers dream.

By:

detraveller When: 28 Dec 16 01:25

Does he come back after lunch for his 200?

By:

pxb When: 28 Dec 16 01:28

I hope so

They'll surely bat on: scoring at the rate they've been there's no disadvantage. I'd estimate that the speed of scoring over the last few overs makes the draw less likely but Pak probably needs to enforce a follow on, which will need a lot from Shah.

By:

jucel69 When: 28 Dec 16 02:19

it would be funny if Starc knocked them both over before the 200

By:

jucel69 When: 28 Dec 16 02:21

pakis must be on the run lines

By:

jucel69 When: 28 Dec 16 02:34

Got lucky there, laid 450 thinking they would declare after Ali's 200

By:

pxb When: 28 Dec 16 02:44

Looks like we will lose quite a few overs tomorrow.

By:

jucel69 When: 28 Dec 16 02:48

I will lay Aus under 10s, if they get there.

By:

jucel69 When: 28 Dec 16 02:54

what a review

By:

jucel69 When: 28 Dec 16 06:40

Just got home and seen the score. Pak bowled pretty well before I went out.
Pies or good batting?
Just backed the draw again at 1.29, glad I didn't lay Aus at 10s

scratch that, the way Pak are bowling they are setting themselves up for another 5th day collapse.

By:

jucel69 When: 28 Dec 16 06:53

Not sure that was conclusive!

I can still Pak being under the pump at some stage in the game

By:

yeah pak are dodgy match fixing terrorists

By:

pxb When: 28 Dec 16 07:03

Another early morning tomorrow to see what the weather looks like.

By:

jucel69 When: 28 Dec 16 07:05

The jacket must have bowled two dozen no balls! He is a spot fixing master

By:

nugget When: 28 Dec 16 07:10

Will Australia declare early and tempt Pakistan to go for the win?

By:

jucel69 When: 28 Dec 16 07:13

it will depend on how much rain there is tomorrow. 8-25mm is forecast, which is a fair bit!

By:

nugget When: 28 Dec 16 07:17

Forecast for reasonably strong winds as well so you never know.

It has taken them forever to get the pitch ready with a bit of drizzle. I can imagine a downpour would cause a lengthy delay
