Do it when it counts, Watto.

Watto caught on the ropes but Bresnan walks over the rope.
Watto moves to 96

I raised this on Friday and good to see some debate.
Look I like nothing better than belting the poms but believe the toss makes a huge advantage. Just go back to the last ashes series in England.

Bury these blokes, they're dead. Dropping that catch.

One hour down, one hour to go... Would look to get another 60 or so and lead by over 520.

Would we bother declaring before lunch to have a couple of overs at them, or not worth it?
