Average first innings at the Gabba is apparently 390 but this pitch looks a bit slower.

Will be interesting to see how we go. Still feel like one of smith and warner need to make bulk runs for us to make a decent score

In other news a bloke has proposed to his Mrs in the pool at the Gabba.

Yes.

Anderson with the new ball, been looking forward to this for months now. He's a dead set gun who I love watching but doesn't have the best record here, see how he goes this time around.

Would love to see Usman get a ton in this test. Especially this innings.

Root was all over it, good captaincy. Unfortunately the trend continues.

No theres not. Hes taken it up a notch here though, hes never had a problem in Australia against spin until now
Pakistan are horrible players of spin, reckon Warneies had his best strike rate and average against the Pakis
