    pitch looks lifeless, Bing Lee is getting driven for four at random by the Pommie batsman .... looks like first batsman to make a ton this series might be a Pom

    on a brighter note, of the Aussie batsman, i'll pick Hayden to be our first centurian ...... he's looked pretty good from the word go on this tour.

    I'm guessing Katich.

    I didn't think any of them fell under the banner "which Aussie" maybe which South African ??

    But yes, first ton is looking very much like Treswhateverthatis, with Lee securely back at his form from 18 months ago. :P

    gonna take a lot of grit to grind out a win in this test.

    Looks like a 500 first innings, followed by another 500 by the Aussies, petering out to a tame draw. Which, where England are sitting, is a great result I suppose. A bit like the Kiwis when they toured here a few years ago and played for draws.

    He was smiling away in the change rooms, so hopefully there is some hope. Wonder if they will give that other bloke a run in one of the tests, the "other" fast bowler ??

    First Aussie ton will be Hack Lee. I predict his figures will be 2/128 for the first innings.

    There was a 6 in 7 chance of me not picking a Qlder.

    I just don't think he is batting that well.
