Saw at least four or five deliveries keep really low. Reckon it might be tricky with the rain about. If we get 300 here we will clean these blokes up, team is full of teeball bash artists.

Was actually just noticing what a fantastic job Voges was doing of getting a run here and there when Marsh gets out having not scored for quite some time. Something like 18 overs in a row where he's scored something and often early in the over to get off strike. Then when Marsh gets out I went back and the 3 previous overs he hadn't scored. 11 dots in a row before the ball that got him out. Simple game sometimes.

Voges out a little earlier for 47

Aus 7/170

Saw the replays of the wickets- Smith's dismissal was horrible and not one we'd like to see again. Marsh got a good nut, Khawaja should of played forward instead of back. The worst was Nevill, WTF was he thinking? Faced 11 deliveries and then completely threw his wicket away by trying to hit over mid-on, dumb batting.

Australia are all out for 203, lead by 86.

This is the first time that no player in the Australian 11 has made a half century against Sri Lanka in Sri Lanka.

what a load of crap ball tracking is. Lyon reviews his LBW. Replay shows the ball was a wrongun and it was definitely turning AWAY from the stumps after pitching. Ball tracking shows it going straight on or even a little towards leg smashing into off stump full on.
utter garbage that is

Can't believe the carry on and talk about the ball Mitch Marsh got. After all the shit I heard I thought it was a 'Gatting' ball.

Yep it straightend a touch, big deal. Marsh played the wrong line and got bowled. Allan Border nearly blew in his jocks.
you've gota keep on keep'n on .........

Would have like a few more, anything over 120 on this pitch could be very tricky to chase on the last day

What a shot by Steve Smith. As soon as he did it he was wondering why. Set the tone for the entire day. Lankans bowled really well but we still aren't impressive against slow bowling in subcontinental conditions. Smith has to lead by example from this point on and sell his wicket bloody hard. With plodders like Marsh and Nevill at six and seven we can't afford to have Smith throw his wicket away.

BTW, Burns is still shit.
