by the way - I recall some posts before saying no to Lyon being picked if I recall right ?
 
so, they are 3 down ATM.
Lets take a punt how long they gonna last before all out :)
I'll say 250 ?
Fair guess mate.

Pope must be a nitemare to coach. He is compact, good defense, decent shot selection, but for some unknown reason to his coaches he manages to get himself out too cheaply far too often.

Jeez Root has dodged a bullet. Dill of a third umpire denies the worlds best keeper one of his special snaffles.

Yeh in Perth and Brissie which were clearly pace friendly decks with little need for a spinner. And that is the way it eventuated.

Me.

I still think it was a mistake to play the first 2 Tests without a specialist spinner. Just think GOAT is getting too old.
 
Short spells by the quicks in this heat.
As long as Lyon contains from one end. It is okay. Soon they are going to miss Webster.

Paddy and Green can’t bowl sustained spells, whilst the captain returns from injury,
