SL won the toss & elected to bowl. Start delayed by 15 mins due to wet outfield.

Bugger about the rain though.

Jacques out for a ton. Good effort. Murali looking dangerous.

We aren't sitting too badly, although I feel we need more runs. I'm not overly confident about our bowling stocks.

I was quite surprised that SL didn't play Malinga.

Still going along with no problems.

Pretty much no chance of losing this game already.

Did we make the right decision enforcing the follow on?

I'm anti making them follow on but in this case it won't matter.

I think we should have batted for a few hours and freshened up the bowlers. I wonder if not letting Murali get another bowl was a consideration with Ponting.

I think that is a real possibility especially after the talk pre-series to deny him breaking Warnie's record in this 2 match series.

Its very boring at the moment. As good as Johnson looks at times he bowls a lot of bad balls doesn't he ?
